Positioning of double-lumen tubes based on the minimum peak inspiratory pressure difference between the right and left lungs in short patients: a prospecti... Background:Peak inspiratory pressures (PIPs) during one-lung ventilation (OLV) have served as a clinical marker that could indirectly verify...
Sequences were divided equally between the right and left hemithorax. Each participant's knowledge of t ...MethodsA total of 280 short lung US sequences (one respiratory cycle), recorded in the operating room, of presence and absence of LS in intubated patients were randomly presented to ...

This is due partly to the enormous attention given to the evaluation of the left heart, a lack of familiarity with ultrasound techniques that can be used in imaging the right heart, and a paucity of ultrasound studies providing normal reference values of right heart size and function. In all...
lung weight of rat models used for cardiomyocyte isolation.d, Sham, PAB and AOB surgery was performed in an independent animal cohort. End-diastolic pressure (EDP) was determined by right heart (left graphs) or left heart (right graphs) catheterization in sham controls and after banding at ...
The left lung was inflated with neutralised buffered formalin and a small piece of the right lung was snap frozen for molecular analyses. 2.6. Measurement of Right Ventricular Hypertrophy Right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) or Fulton index was assessed as the weight of the RV free wall/the ...
existinglung diseasecauses back pressure in the heart. The right ventricle becomes enlarged due to raised pressure within the pulmonary artery. This leads to distortion of the tricuspid valve, with blood subsequently leaking back into the right atrium, which also enlarges. In the case of pulmonary...
This systematic review and meta-analysis examines the prognostic value of primary tumor sidedness (right vs left) in colon cancer.
Chest X-ray at day 1 (left panel) and day 5 (right panel) of life. Chest radiography shows the bowel loops occupying part of the left hemithorax the 1st post-natal day, and a relatively preserved lung volume, especially on the right side, the 5th post-natal day Full size image Fig....
Theright ventricleis the most anteriorly positioned chamber of the heart, sitting directly posterior to the sternum. The distinct anatomical features of the right ventricle create an approximately 10-fold difference in vascular resistance between the right and left ventricular systems. We will first re...
