[State of cardiopulmonary hemodynamics in patients with mucoviscidosis according to Doppler echocardiography].
OBJECTIVE
Doppler echocardiography (DEC) assessment of cardiopulmonary hemodynamics in patients with mixed and pulmonary forms of mucoviscidosis (MV).


METHODS
44 MV patients were divided into 4 groups depending on the presence or absence of echocardiographic and DEC data on right ventricular failure (RVF) or pulmonary hypertension.


RESULTS
In MV patients, diastolic dysfunctions of the right heart may be preclinical and often precede systolic disorders. Development of RVF in some MV patients proceeds with distinct decline in myocardial contractility without stages of myocardial hypertrophy and pulmonary hypertension.


CONCLUSIONS
Right atrium is able to certain extent compensate RVF in MV due to enhancement of its contractility.
