VENTRICULAR INTERDEPENDENCE: EFFECT OF CHRONIC RIGHT VENTRICULAR PRESSURE OR VOLUME LOAD ON BIVENTRICULAR MYOCARDIAL MECHANICS

Methods Pediatric patients with chronic RV pressure load [valvar pulmonary stenosis - PS] or volume load [secundum atrial septal defect - ASD], who underwent catheter intervention were retrospectively studied. Conclusion RV volume or pressure load alters myocardial mechanics of both ventricles that...

Zusammenfassung:Methods Pediatric patients with chronic RV pressure load [valvar pulmonary stenosis - PS] or volume load [secundum atrial septal defect - ASD], who underwent catheter intervention were retrospectively studied. Conclusion RV volume or pressure load alters myocardial mechanics of both ventricles that persists at short term follow-up after intervention.
