Changes in the radius of curvature of the ventricular septum at end diastole during pulmonary arterial and aortic constrictions in the dog.

Abstract: Background. At end diastole, the position and shape of the ventricular septum depend on the transseptal pressure gradient. It is not clear, however, how the septal radius of curvature changes in response to the

“…Despite similar wall thickness, diastolic stiffness in the RV of the banding group is higher by a factor of 2 than that of the normal LV. Although we do not have specific data regarding the septal geometry and geometry of the LV in terms of septal-to-free wall distance and apex-to-base distance, several studies indicate that as result of a chronic RV pressure overload (and thus decreased septal pressure gradient), the septum is displaced toward the LV (12,21). In addition, the septal-to-LV free wall distance is found to be decreased.…”

“…Other possible mechanisms may include impaired left ventricular filling in the setting of right ventricular dysfunction, thereby contributing to higher rates of decompensated HF perioperatively, as seen in this study. This phenomenon is a consequence of prolonged contraction of the right ventricular free wall seen with right ventricular pressure overload, thus exceeding left ventricular pressures in early diastole and resulting in paradoxical septal movement leading to reduced left ventricular end-diastolic filling [21, 22]. The association between PH and perioperative MACEs after KT demonstrated in this analysis warrants future studies to better delineate potential mechanisms underlying these observations.…”
