Michael Dandel,Roland Hetzer +1 more
TLDR
Special attention is focused on the usefulness of RV echo-evaluation in relation to load for proper decision making before ventricular assist-device implantation in patients with CHF and for optimal timing of listing procedures to transplantation in Patients with end-stage pre-capillary PH.About:

Marlieke F. Dietz,Edgard A. Prihadi,Pieter van der Bijl,Laurien Goedemans,Bart Mertens,Erhan Gursoy,Olton S. van Genderen,Nina Ajmone Marsan,Victoria Delgado,Jeroen J. Bax +9 more
TL;DR: In patients with significant secondary TR, patients with RV systolic dysfunction have worse clinical outcome regardless of the presence of RV dilation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fibroblasts and the extracellular matrix in right ventricular disease.
TL;DR: There is a need further to dissect RV-specific mechanisms of fibrosis and interstitial remodelling, considering the unique embryologic, morphological, and physiologic properties of the RV and the clinical significance of right ventricular failure.

Three-Dimensional Echocardiography–Derived Right Ventricular Ejection Fraction Correlates with Success of Decannulation and Prognosis in Patients Stabilized by Venoarterial Extracorporeal Life Support
TL;DR: Three-dimensional echocardiography-derived 3DE-derived RV ejection fraction (RVEF) might represent the composite results of RV contractility, left ventricular performance, and fluid status in patients with refractory cardiogenic shock.

Echocardiographic evaluation of the right ventricle: Clinical implications
Tanya Dutta,Wilbert S. Aronow +1 more
TL;DR: Echocardiography is well poised to become the primary modality to evaluate the RV, both qualitatively and quantitatively, with continuing and exponential advances in technology.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the right ventricle by echocardiography: particularities and major challenges
Michael Dandel,Roland Hetzer +1 more
TL;DR: This review discusses the particular challenges and limits in obtaining accurate measurements of RV anatomical and functional parameters and focuses primarily on the difficulties in proper interpretation of the highly load dependent RV ECHO-parameters which complicates the use of this valuable diagnostic and surveillance technique.
