Accurate echocardiographic parameters to predict maintenance of sinus rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are poorly defined. This study was conducted assess the myocardial properties during AF through velocity, strain rate, and compare their prognostic value maintaining lone standard transthoracic (TTE) transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).Sixty-five consecutive for < or =3 months underwent TTE, TEE, velocity rate imaging examinations before successful external cardioversion....
Stress echocardiography (SE) has an established role in evidence-based guidelines, but recently its breadth and variety of applications have extended well beyond coronary artery disease (CAD). We lack a prospective research study SE applications, CAD, also considering signs addition to regional wall motion abnormalities. In prospective, multicenter, international, observational design, > 100 certified high-volume labs (initially from Italy, Brazil, Hungary, Serbia) will be networked with...
Transposition of the great arteries (TGA) is considered to be associated only rarely with genetic syndromes and have a low risk precurrence among relatives affected patients. Because most family studies involved relatively small number patients evaluated all types TGA as single group, we performed large, prospective study investigating congenital heart disease in families children complete, nonsyndromic TGA.From January 1997 through December 2000, 370 nonsyndromic, complete were...
LEOPARD syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant characterized by multiple lentigines and café-au-lait spots, electrocardiographic-conduction abnormalities, ocular hypertelorism/obstructive cardiomyopathy, pulmonary stenosis, abnormalities of the genitalia in males, retardation growth, deafness. LS shares many features with Noonan (NS), which deafness are usually not present. Molecular studies have shown that NS allelic disorders, caused different missense mutations PTPN11, a gene encoding...
The prevalence of obesity is increasing among children in the developed world. association and abnormal cardiac function still debated. reported changes may reflect role comorbidities that contribute to ventricular dysfunction. Obese children, without arterial hypertension, be a unique clinical opportunity evaluate effect obesity, per se, on myocardial function, excluding influence possible comorbidities. We sought define preclinical effects cardiovascular system, healthy with excess weight...
AimsPrevious reports have demonstrated that myocardial velocities are not sufficiently sensitive in foetal heart studies. Strain (S) imaging is a new non-invasive ultrasonic technique able to quantify regional deformation properties. has superior sensitivity than velocity for assessment of ventricular function. However, Doppler-derived strain been used properties the with rather limited results, because angle dependency, extracardial movement, need good-quality images, long and...
To analyse right ventricular (RV) myocardial deformation in patients with left (LV) hypertrophy secondary to either hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) or athlete's competitive endurance training.Standard Doppler echo, exercise stress and 2D speckle-tracking strain echocardiography (2DSE) of RV longitudinal septal lateral walls were performed 50 top-level athletes 35 HCM, all men, having evidence LV hypertrophy. Right global (GLS) was calculated by averaging local strains along the entire...
Left ventricular (LV) twist and untwist play a major role in LV mechanics. We sought to acquire new pathophysiological insights cardiomyopathies (CM) studying dynamics by speckle tracking imaging (STI). Standard echo-Doppler STI study were performed 67 CM patients divided four age- sex-matched subgroups: 18 with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Group A); 20 asymmetrical B); 15 dilated C); 14 non-compaction D). As controls, 34 normal subjects studied. Compared control group, all Groups...
