Examples in Context

  1. Peak rate of systolic shortening ( short rate ) and of early diastolic lengthening rate ( length rate ).
  2. Objective : To study the relationship between the alteration of myocardial contractility and cardiac function in hypertensive patients with different left ventricular geometry using the end systolic stress midwall fractional shortening.
  3. Shrinkage allowance The relationship between diastolic function and systolic function assessed by left ventricular mid-wall fractional shortening
  4. Lung capacity, maximal breathing capacity in each minute, stroke volume, cardiac output, ejection fraction, heart rate, ejection time, mean normalized systolic ejection rate ( MNSER ) and left velocity of circumferential fiber shortening ( LVCf ).
  5. Cardiac function : Left ventricular end systolic diameter ( LVESD ), left ventricular end diastolic diameter ( LVEDD ), left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF ) and shortening fraction were similar mostly in each group before operation.
