The impact of pericardial approach and myocardial protection onto postoperative right ventricle function reduction

Abstract Background The reduction of RV function after cardiac surgery is a well-known phenomenon. It could persist up-to one year after the operation and often leads to an incomplete recovery at follow-up echocardiographic control.
