Mechanisms maintaining right ventricular contractility-to-pulmonary arterial elastance ratio in VA ECMO: a retrospective animal data analysis of RV-PA coupling.
Kaspar F BachmannPer Werner MollerLukas HunzikerMarco MaggioriniDavid BergerPublished in: Journal of intensive care (2024)
The right ventricle dilates with increased preload and increases its contractility in response to afterload changes to maintain ventricular-arterial coupling during VA extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
