Journal ArticleDOI

The echocardiographic assessment of the right ventricle: what to do in 2010?

TL;DR: There is hope that novel myocardial deformation parameters and three-dimensional echocardiography-derived parameters may add value to the examination of the RV, but validation studies are still needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanical dispersion assessed by myocardial strain in patients after myocardial infarction for risk prediction of ventricular arrhythmia.

TL;DR: Novel parameters assessed by myocardial strain may add important information about susceptibility for ventricular arrhythmias after MI, including mechanical dispersion, which was more pronounced in post-MI patients with recurrent arrhythias.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic interval training and continuous training equally improve aerobic exercise capacity in patients with coronary artery disease: the SAINTEX-CAD study.

TL;DR: Comparing the effects of AIT and Aerobic Continuous Training on peak VO₂, peripheral endothelial function, cardiovascular risk factors, quality of life and safety, in a large multicentre study of coronary artery disease patients observed similar improvements in exercise capacity and peripheral endothelium function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Strain echocardiography improves risk prediction of ventricular arrhythmias after myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: A combination of mechanical dispersion and global strain may improve the selection of patients after MI for implantable cardioverter-defibrillator therapy, particularly in patients with LVEFs >35% who did not fulfill current implantable cardiovascular indications.
Journal ArticleDOI

The use of pocket-size imaging devices: a position statement of the European Association of Echocardiography.

TL;DR: The aim of this European Association of Echocardiography (EAE) position paper is to provide recommendations on the use of pocket-size imaging devices in the clinical arena by profiling the educational needs of potential users other than cardiologists experts in echo.
