A study provides significant evidence in the field of advanced cardiac imaging and clinical cardiology. It shows that the ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) happens when your heart can’t relax and fill with blood properly during the diastole phase. Aging is the most common cause, with an estimated 88% of ...

Pulseless ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an atypical heart rhythm that can cause chest pain, fainting, and cardiac arrest. Doctors treat it with cardiopulmonary resuscitation, defibrillators, and ...

Ventricular resection can significantly improve your life span if you have severe heart failure due to an enlarged left ventricle. If you have an enlarged heart (also known as cardiomegaly), it means ...

Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) is prevalent in 41.7 percent of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a potentially lethal disease characterized by adrenergically mediated ventricular arrhythmias manifested especially in children and teenagers.

Depending on how the heart’s electrical activity appears on an EKG, a doctor may diagnose coarse or fine ventricular fibrillation (VF). Coarse VF appears as larger waves on an EKG compared with the ...

Exercise-induced ventricular ectopy predicts an increased risk of death in population-based cohorts. We sought to examine in a clinical cohort the prognostic importance of ventricular ectopy ...
