Figures, Tables, and Topics from this paper

Cardioplegia and cardiac function
TLDR
In a number of patients the heart recovering from the surgical trauma and the cardioplegic arrest cannot provide a sufficient peripheral circulation in the immediate postoperative period, although coronary blood flow is restored, and there is no myocardial necrosis.
ISOPROTERENOL AND CARDIOVASCULAR PERFORMANCE.
Aortic acceleration as a noninvasive index of left ventricular contractility in the mouse
TLDR
The results suggest that mean or peak aortic acceleration or the other parameters may be used as a noninvasive index of LV contractility.
Effects of Choice of Medical Imaging Modalities on a Non-invasive Diagnostic and Monitoring Computational Framework for Patients With Complex Valvular, Vascular, and Ventricular Diseases Who Undergo Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
TLDR
A non-invasive and Doppler-based diagnostic and monitoring computational mechanics framework for C3 VI, called C3VI-DE that uses input parameters measured reliably using Dopplers echocardiography and another computational-mechanics framework forC3VI (called C3vi-CT), which tracks both the cardiac and vascular status and is in great agreement with cardiac catheter data.
A diagnostic, monitoring, and predictive tool for patients with complex valvular, vascular and ventricular diseases
TLDR
An innovative non-invasive imaged-based patient-specific diagnostic, monitoring and predictive tool was developed, enabling quantifying details of physiological flow and pressures through the heart and circulatory system and C3VI-CMF predicts the breakdown of the effects of each disease constituents on the heart function.
Multimodality Imaging of the Right Heart
TLDR
The right ventricle has become recognized as being an important component of cardiac status, and can provide potential useful information, including prognosis, extent of disease, associated impact on the tricuspid valve and pulmonary circulation, and finally for patient selection and periprocedural planning of invasive treatment options.

Left Ventricular Tension and Stress in Man
TLDR
To calculate wall tension and stress, it is assumed that the left ventricle can be represented as an ellipsoid of revolution with a relatively thin wall.
Effects of Work Loads Applied at Various Times in the Cardiac Cycle of the Isolated Dog Heart
TLDR
The results of many observations indicated that the rates of isometric ventricular contraction and relaxation were not fixed by prior events, that contraction and Relaxation could be altered independently, and that aortic regurgitation loaded the left ventricle at a time critical for its relaxation.
PERCUTANEOUS PUNCTURE OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE
TLDR
The present report constitutes a description of the techniques and a summary of the experience with the procedure with a minimum of risk and discomfort in this clinic.
The regulation of the performance of the heart.
Homeometric Autoregulation in the Heart
TLDR
It was found that changes in coronary flow are not essential to the exhibition of this phenomenon and it has been termed homeometric autoregulation in contradistinction to the Frank-Starling or heterometric type of autoreGulation.
STUDIES ON STARLING'S LAW OF THE HEART. III. OBSERVATIONS IN PATIENTS WITH MITRAL STENOSIS AND ATRIAL FIBRILLATION ON THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN LEFT VENTRICULAR END-DIASTOLIC SEGMENT LENGTH, FILLING PRESSURE, AND THE CHARACTERISTICS OF VENTRICULAR CONTRACTION.
TLDR
Attempts were made to examine, in a critical manner, the applicability of Starling's law of the heart to man to relate the end-diastolic fiber length and the end of diastolic filling pressure to the characteristics of ventricular contraction under conditions in which substantial changes in ventricular filling take place.

The Direct Effects of Norepinephrine, Epinephrine, and Methoxamine on Myocardial Contractile Force in Man
TLDR
The results of these studies indicate that there are no qualitative differences in the actions of these amines on cardiac contractile force of dog and man and provide a basis for the rational clinical use of these agents.
Acute unilateral ventricular failure in the isolated dog heart.
TLDR
The observations suggest that the unilateral ventricular failure involved a permanent alteration of the distensibility and contractility of the wall of the left ventricularle as a result of a process which permitted the right ventricle to retain normal function.
