LV unloading with microaxial flow pumps during complex PCI does not reduce major adverse clinical outcomes in patients with impaired LV function.

This Journal feature begins with a case vignette highlighting a common clinical problem. Evidence supporting various strategies is then presented, followed by a review of formal guidelines, when they ...

Both double outlet right ventricle (DORV) and double inlet left ventricle (DILV) are congenital heart defects that create the phenomenon of a single ventricle. This means that the heart, which ...

Background: Prolonged steady state exercise can lead to a decrease in left ventricular (LV) function as well as promote the release of cardiac troponin T (cTnT). There is limited information on the ...

The interventricular septum separates the heart’s two ventricles and plays a vital role in maintaining correct bloodflow. Sometimes a defect can occur or be present from birth. This can increase the ...
