  2. Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrhythmogenic_cardiomyopathy

    It is characterized by hypokinetic areas involving the free wall of the ventricle, with fibrofatty replacement of the myocardium, with associated arrhythmias often originating in the right ventricle. The nomenclature ARVD is currently thought to be inappropriate and misleading as ACM does not involve dysplasia of the ventricular wall.

  3. Hibernating myocardium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibernating_myocardium

    The wall of the affected segments is hypo-, a-, or dyskinetic. [citation needed] The phenomenon is highly significant clinically because it usually manifests itself in the setting of chronic ischemia, that is potentially reversible by revascularisation via cardiac catheterization. The regions of myocardium are still viable and can return to ...

  4. Hypokinesia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypokinesia

    This suggests that hypokinetic individuals simply have a narrower range of movement that does not increase relative to motivation. [ 32 ] [ 34 ] Other studies have come to the same conclusion about rewards and hypokinesia, but have shown that aversive stimuli can, in fact, reduce hypokinesic movement.

  5. Radionuclide angiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radionuclide_angiography

    In normal subjects, the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) should be about 50% [9] (range, 50-80%). There should be no area of abnormal wall motion (hypokinesis, akinesis or dyskinesis). Abnormalities in cardiac function may be manifested as a decrease in LVEF and/or the presence of abnormalities in global and regional wall motion.

  6. Strain rate imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_rate_imaging

    Due to this, and the fact that the left ventricle in normal conditions contract with a relatively invariant outer contour, [8] [9] the longitudinal strain contains the main information, while transmural strain (wall thickening) is a function of wall shortening, wall thickness and chamber diameter, while circumferential shortening is mainly a ...

  7. ST depression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ST_depression

    A mnemonic can be used for some causes of ST depression, namely DEPRESSED ST: [citation needed]. D - Drooping valve (mitral valve prolapse) E - Enlargement of the left ventricle P - Potassium loss R - Reciprocal ST depression (e.g. inferior wall MI) E - Encephalon hemorrhage S - Subendocardial infarct S - Subendocardial ischemia E - Embolism (pulmonary) D - Dilated cardiomyopathy S - Shock T ...

  9. Ventricular dyssynchrony - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventricular_dyssynchrony

    Interventricular dyssynchrony occurs when there is a difference in timing between right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) Systole. Intraventricular dyssynchrony occurs when the timing in a sequence of activations and contractions of segments of the LV wall becomes abnormal. [3]
