Left ventricular torsion rate and the relation to right ventricular function in pediatric pulmonary arterial hypertension
The right ventricle and left ventricle are physically coupled through the interventricular septum. Therefore, changes in the geometry and mechanics of one ventricle can directly affect the function of the other. In treatment of pediatric pulmonary arterial hypertension, the left ventricle is often o...
