The approach to acute right ventricular failure is a little different to left ventricular failure. Since the left ventricle is working well, it will be able to deal with any blood it receives from the right side and pulmonary oedema is therefore not a concern. Problems can arise when …

Left ventricular hypertrophy reduces compliance of the left ventricle Compliance of the left ventricle is impaired in LVH. As a consequence of this action, cardiac filling is more sensi-tive to changes in LV filling pressure. On the one hand, hypervolemia will more readily cause an increase in left

Despite this thickening, the ventricle size often remains normal. However, the thickening may block blood flow out of the ventricle. If this happens, the condition is called obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Sometimes, the septum thickens and bulges into the left ventricle. This also can block blood flow out of the left ventricle.

DCM is characterized by a poorly contracting dilated left ventricle and oftentimes enlarged atria. Cats with DCM usually progress to congestive heart failure. Potential Outcomes Although there is variable progression with feline cardiomyopathy with many cats remaining asymptomatic for years, many will progress to developing clinical signs

In this situation, an enlarged left ventricular (LV) cavity size (>56mm) in the absence of symptoms is highly suggestive of physiologi-cal LVH. Other markers that favor physiological LVH include normal LV diastolic function, a concentric pattern of hypertrophy, left atrial size

enlarged ventricles. In these patients, there is an 80% success rate for endoscopic third ventriculostomy. Finally, the most severe form of the slit ventricle syndrome involves intracranial hypertension without ventriculomegaly, which is managed optimally by shunt strategies that emphasize drainage of the cortical subarachnoid space such as lumbo-

Dilated or congestive cardiomyopathy (DCM) is diagnosed when the heart is enlarged (dilated) and the pumping chambers contract poorly (usually left side worse than right). A diagram and echocardiogram comparing a normal heart and a heart with DCM are shown in figure 1a and figure 1b.

What causes DCM? There are many different causes of DCM. • DCM is a condition where the heart chambers become enlarged, which affects its ability to pump. • The left ventricle of the heart becomes enlarged (dilated) and the muscle wall becomes thinner. This gives the heart a more rounded (rather than the normal cone) shape.

The left ventricle is one of the two lower heart chambers. The ventricles receive blood from the atria. The left ventricle sends the blood out to the rest of the body. Right ventricle Left atrium The septum is part of the heart muscle. It divides the right and left sides of the heart. A valve separates each atrium from each ventricle. The heart
