Right Ventricular Function Correlates with Local Mechanical Dyssynchrony of Interventricular Septum in Patients with Non-Ischemic Dilated Cardiomyopathy
The underlying mechanisms of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NICM) remain poorly defined. We evaluated a potential correlation between local mechanical dyssynhcrony of interventricular septum (IVS) and RV function in these patients.
