This Harvard Medical School Continuing Education video examines these key questions: What causes right ventricular dysfunction? What does an RV death spiral look like? How is right ventricular dysfunction treated?
Dr. Jenna McNeill, MD, faculty at Massachusetts General Hospital, shows how to recognize signs of right ventricular (RV) disfunction in imaging, explains the causes of RV and the severity of its complications, and identifies treatment options to correct right ventricular dysfunction. Medications for blood pressure management are also reviewed.
