Key result
Predominant right ventricular ischemia was documented in four patients with variant angina caused by right coronary vasospasm, detectable by first-pass radionuclide study and phase analysis of RNA.
Why the study?
Can noninvasive imaging and hemodynamic monitoring detect predominant right ventricular ischemia during variant angina caused by right coronary vasospasm?
Case Report (n=8)
Can noninvasive imaging and hemodynamic monitoring detect predominant right ventricular ischemia during variant angina caused by right coronary vasospasm?
First-pass radionuclide studies and phase analysis of RNA are suitable techniques for detecting transient right ventricular dysfunction in patients with variant angina caused by right coronary vasospasm.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Suggests RV ischemia in RCA vasospasm may be detectable by radionuclide methods; leaves open clinical utility pending larger studies.
Parodi et al. (1984) conducted a case report in Variant angina caused by right coronary vasospasm (n=8). Right coronary vasospasm vs. Patients with left ventricular involvement was evaluated on Right ventricular ischemia. Predominant right ventricular ischemia was documented in four patients with variant angina caused by right coronary vasospasm, detectable by first-pass radionuclide study and phase analysis of RNA.
