Objective: The benefits of lung-protective ventilation strategies used for acute respiratory distress syndrome in subjects with normal lungs are uncertain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the hemodynamic effects of conventional lung-prot

One-dimensional strain imaging has been shown to be angle dependent. To address this problem, a new methodology, 2D-strain, has become available. The aim of this study was to validate this methodology in an in vivo set-up against sonomicrometry. In f

Objective: Levosimendan is a promising calcium sensitizer that potentially could be useful in settings of pulmonary vasoconstriction and right ventricular dysfunction. There is a shortage of information concerning its effects on right ventricular fun

Maximal left ventricular (LV) hydraulic power output (PWRmax), corrected for preload as PWRmax/(Ved)β (where Ved is the end-diastolic volume and β is a constant coefficient), is an index of LV contractility. Whereas preload-adjusted maximal power (

Summary Background and objective: The effect of propofol on myocardial dysfunction during ischaemia and reperfusion is controversial yet important because of its frequent use in cardiac anaesthesia. Although animal studies suggest a free radical-scav

Objective Arginine vasopressin is a promising systemic vasopressor in settings such as vasodilatory shock and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. The evidence that arginine vasopressin may also have a pulmonary vasodilatory effect makes it an attractive d

To assess whether preload-adjusted maximal power (PAMP), which is calculated asW˙max/V[Formula: see text] (whereW˙max is maximal power and Ved is end-diastolic volume with β = 2) is an index of right ventricular (RV) contractility, we measured RV

SummaryBackground and objective: The haemodynamic effects of acute pulmonary hypertension can be largely attributed to ventricular interdependence during diastole. However, there is evidence that the two ventricles also interact during systole. The a

The clinical evaluation of right ventricular (RV) contractility is problematic because instantaneous RV volumetry is difficult to achieve. Our aim was to test whether global RV contractility can be assessed by using regional indexes in the longitudin
