Restrictive cardiomyopathy is defined as a disease of the heart muscle which results in impaired filling of the heart ventricles during diastole.
There is an established practice of using the electrical conductance of blood (PV loops) in heart ventricles to determine the instantaneous volume of the ventricle.
Passive filling of the (heart) ventricle and subsequent atrial contraction thus allows an echocardiographically volumetric measurement.
Holyfield, a taut 209 3/4 pounds, was returning after 13 months of inactivity caused when he was diagnosed, apparently erroneously, with a faulty left heart ventricle.
As the aortic valve becomes more narrow, the pressure increases inside the left heart ventricle.
This causes the left heart ventricle to become thicker, which decreases blood flow and can lead to chest pain.
Heart valves are essentially inlet and outlet check valves for the heart ventricles, since the ventricles act as pumps.
From there blood enters the heart ventricle and the cycle repeats.
E. sagitta adults are typically found in the heart ventricles, as well as coronary and pulmonary arteries, and occasionally coronary veins.
In August she suffered from malaria and failure of the left heart ventricle.
