0 relating either to the ventricles of the heart or any space in the body:
ventricular tachycardia
ventricular fibrillation
ventricular septal defect
The right ventricular systolic pressure tends to decrease with age.
Reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract is, therefore, to be recommended as soon after palliation as is possible.
However, the results of objective evaluation of right ventricular function represent a somewhat more worrisome picture.
The ventricular rate was 150/min with gallop rhythm, the venous pressure 11 cm and the liver was enlarged and pulsatile.
The funnel consisted of myocardium that formed a continuity between the right wall of the atrioventricular canal and the ventricular septum.
This is 2:1 second degree atrioventricular block - every other atrial contraction is followed by a ventricular contraction (v).
In 1:1 atrioventricular conduction, every atrial contraction (a) is followed by a ventricular contraction (o).
In 1:1 atrioventricular conduction, each atrial contraction (a) is followed by a ventricular contraction (v).
