Tissue Doppler velocities are impaired after heart transplantation and further diminished in acute rejection.Left ventricular relaxation index (LVRI) was calculated as the sum of E' of the left ventricular lateral, septal and posterior walls divided

Background Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction is a well-recognized complication of cardiopulmonary bypass surgery (CPB) in adults. Infants and neonates may also be at high risk for this due to immature myocardium. Conventional assessment of RV functi

Infants and children born with severe cardiac valve lesions have no effective long term treatment options since currently available tissue or mechanical prosthetic valves have sizing limitations and no avenue to accommodate the growth of the pediatri

Background We have shown previously that input impedance of the pulmonary vasculature provides a comprehensive characterization of right ventricular afterload by including compliance. However, impedance-based compliance assessment requires invasive m

In adults, an acute decrease of regional myocardial velocities is a sensitive marker of rejection. In children, velocities are more variable. A new marker, myocardial acceleration during isovolumic contraction (IVA), appears to be less age-dependent

Shprintzen-Goldberg syndrome is a rare and lethal association of craniosynostosis with features of Marfan syndrome. 1 It has been traced to a defect of chromosome 15. 2 Cardiac features include progressive aortic root dilatation. To our knowledge, th

Background— Current evaluation of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in children involves measurement of pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR); however, PVR neglects important pulsatile components. Pulmonary artery (PA) input impedance and ventricular power

Accurate assessment of the pressure gradient (PG) across a modified Blalock–Taussig (mBT) shunt is important in planning for staging to a cavopulmonary anastomosis for many patients with cyanotic congenital heart disease. The mBT shunt Doppler velo
