Effects of carvedilol on right ventricular function in chronic heart failure

R A Quaife et al. Am J Cardiol. .

Abstract

This study investigated the effects of carvedilol on right ventricular (RV) volume and systolic function in chronic heart failure patients. Carvedilol treatment resulted in a significant improvement of RV ejection fraction and systolic performance, which paralleled the improvement of systolic function demonstrated in the left ventricle.
