Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of adult death worldwide. In many cases, quantifying left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) – or how much blood the left ventricle pumps out with each ...

Mitral-valve replacement was performed in five patients with ruptured papillary muscle secondary to myocardial infarction. In each case severe mitral regurgitation was suggested by the sudden ...
