Relationship between right and left ventricular function in candidates for implantable cardioverter defibrillator with low left ventricular ejection fraction
Background: Indications for the primary prevention of sudden death using an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) are based predominantly on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). However, right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) is also a known prognostic factor in a variety of structu...
