Because life expectancy and the prevalence of risk factors such as hypertension, obesity and diabetes are rising globally, heart failure (HF) is growing into a major health problem. Impairment of left ...

A novel artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm shows promise for estimating left ventricular ejection function (LVEF) using routinely obtained left coronary artery angiogram videos, a new study ...

Background: Prolonged steady state exercise can lead to a decrease in left ventricular (LV) function as well as promote the release of cardiac troponin T (cTnT). There is limited information on the ...

Focused cardiac ultrasonography is a practical, transthoracic, qualitative or semiquantitative means of assessing cardiac size, structure, and function that is performed and interpreted by the ...

Systolic heart failure is when the left ventricle of your heart, which pumps a lot of your blood, becomes weak. (Photo Credit: cono0430/Shutterstock) What Are the Common Causes of Systolic Heart ...

Patients with diabetes, multivessel coronary artery disease, and left ventricular dysfunction fare significantly better when treated with coronary artery bypass graft surgery instead of PCI, a ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . 4D model-guided cardiac resynchronization lead placement improved left ventricular function vs. standard care.

LBBB is linked to electrical abnormalities, causing inefficient heart pumping, dilation, and systolic dysfunction. The study found LBBB associated with increased heart failure risk, surpassing other ...

During embryonic development, the right ventricle is formed from the secondary heart field into a crescent-shaped, thin-walled structure. 6 It is the most anterior heart chamber, sitting just beneath ...
