Analysis of intracardiac flows has gained increasing interest in the last years. This analysis
has become possible due to the development of technologies for noninvasive …

The potential relevance of blood flow for describing cardiac function has been known for the
past 2 decades, but the association of clinical parameters with the complexity of fluid motion …

Background Myocardial infarction (MI) leads to complex changes in left ventricular (LV)
haemodynamics that are linked to clinical outcomes. We hypothesize that LV blood flow …

Background The diagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remains
challenging. Exercise-stress testing is recommended in case of uncertainty; however, this …

Hemodynamic force analysis has been proposed as a novel tool for early detection of
subclinical systolic dysfunction in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) …

The hemodynamic forces exchanged between the blood flowing in the heart and the
myocardium are recently receiving attention as an important marker of cardiac function. The …

Abstract Aims Haemodynamic forces (HDFs) provided a feasible method to early detect
cardiac mechanical abnormalities by estimating the intraventricular pressure gradients. The …

The right and left sides of the human heart operate with a common timing and pump the
same amount of blood. Therefore, the right ventricle (RV) presents a function that is …

The association between left ventricular (LV) myocardial deformation and hemodynamic
forces is still mostly unexplored. The normative values and the effects of demographic and …

Patients with heart failure with left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony often do not respond to
cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), indicating that the pathophysiology is insufficiently …
