Relationship between temporal sequence of right ventricular deformation and right ventricular performance in patients with corrected tetralogy of Fallot
6 Dec 2010
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is common in patients with corrected tetralogy of Fallot (cToF). Abnormalities in the temporal pattern of RV mechanical activation have been observed in patients with cToF, but the relationship with RV performance remains unclear. This study characterises RV performance and the temporal sequence of RV deformation in patients with cToF and healthy controls. STUDY...
