Impaired performance of the right ventricular-pulmonary vascular (RV-PV) unit is an important determinant of reduced exercise capacity, morbidity and mortality. We sought to determine comprehensive ...

Background: In heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), ventricular secondary mitral regurgitation (V-sMR) leads to progressive impairment of right ventricular (RV) function and ...

Persistent right ventricular dysfunction, functional capacity limitation, exercise intolerance, and quality of life impairment following pulmonary embolism: systematic review with meta-analysis.

Background: Normative changes in right ventricular (RV) structure and function have not been characterized in the context of treatment-associated functional recovery (RV functional recovery [RVFnRec]) ...
