Coronary Reducer Implantation Effect on RV Function Of 25 severe coronary artery disease patients, 14 had baseline RV dysfunction. Reducer implantation (known to ameliorate myocardial ischemia) was associated with an improvement in several RV function indices (eg, RV FAC improved from 34.1 ± 5.4% to 36.7 ± 5.1%; P = 0.033 and S' improved from 8 ± 1.2 cm/s to 9.5 ± 1.5 cm/s; P = 0.01), a finding that might contribute to patients' clinical stabilization. FAC = fractional area change; RV = right ventricular.
