  1. 1. Echocardiographic assessment of atrioventricular plane displacement, Clinical application in patients with coronary artery disease, atrial fibrillation and aortic stenosis

    Författare :Erik Rydberg; Kardiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; prognosis; aortic stenosis; atrial fibrillation; AVPD; coronary artery disease;

    Sammanfattning : Left atrioventricular plane displacement (AVPD) has been shown to correlate well with left ventricular (LV) systolic function measured as ejection fraction (EF). AVPD has also been shown to be related to diastolic performance. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Assessment of Left Ventricular Dysfunction and Remodelling by Determination of Atrioventricular Plane Displacement and Simplified Echocardiography

    Författare :Ronnie Willenheimer; Kardiologiska klinikens forskargrupp; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiovascular system; simplified echocardiography; atrioventricular plane displacement; diagnosis; screening; heart failure; prognostication; latent heart failure; left ventricular dysfunction; Kardiovaskulära systemet;

    Sammanfattning : Heart failure is a common disease characterised by poor prognosis and frequent hospitalisations, constituting a major economic burden to society. Mortality and morbidity can be reduced by optimal treatment, requiring objective evaluation of cardiac function and anatomy. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Cardiac Long-Axis Function. Experimental and Clinical Aspects

    Författare :Jonathan Berg; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Heart failure; acute myocardal infarct; magnetic resonance imaging MRI ; pressure-volume loops; hypothermia; atrioventricular plane displacement; global longitudinal strain; Survival analyses;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis includes both experimental and clinical projects. The experimental studies investigate pathophysiological aspects of ventricular longitudinal function and therapeutic hypothermia during acute myocardial infarction (AMI). LÄS MER

  4. 4. Diagnostic and prognostic value of cardiac magnetic resonance in patients with pulmonary hypertension

    Författare :Anthony Lindholm; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease with poor prognosis. The symptoms are often unspecific, which can lead to delayed diagnosis. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Cardiac Function and Aortic Valve Intervention : Echocardiographic Studies of Myocardial Recovery in Patients with Severe Aortic Valve Disease

    Författare :Lena Forsberg; Eva Nylander; Éva Tamás; Odd Bech-Hanssen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In patients with severe aortic valve disease, aortic valve intervention is performed when the risk for mortality or morbidity with conservative management is significantly increased. Left ventricular (LV) longitudinal motion decreases before conventional echocardiographic measures such as ejection fraction, are influenced in patients with severe aortic valve disease. LÄS MER
