BackgroundThe purpose of our study was to explore the pumping mechanism of the left ventricle (LV) and to examine the role of longitudinal LV contraction in LV stroke volume (LVSV) compared to a radial LV contraction.
Methods and ResultsWe examined 890 consecutive children without structural heart disease including 395 patients with a history of Kawasaki disease (KD). We measured the mitral annular...
The aim of our study was to evaluate the geometry‐related right ventricular (RV) systolic function under normal hemodynamics by assessing the longitudinal and the radial RV contractions in children. We examined 953 healthy children. We measured tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), RV anterior wall displacement from the interventricular septum (RVWD), and RV to left ventricular diameter...
