| Popis: | We analyzed right ventricular (RV) regional wall motion by two-dimensional echocardiographic (2D echo) and multigated acquisition radionuclear (MUCA) studies in 104 patients with acute inferoposterior myocardial infarction (AIPMI). Sixty-eight patients (65 percent) had 2D echo RV regional wall motion abnormalities (RV dysfunction (RVD) group) while 36 patients showed no 2-D echo RV regional wall motion abnormalities (no-RVD group). The RVD group had a higher incidence of jugular venous engorgement (p |
