Abstract
Right and left hemodynamics have been simultaneously studied in 127 patients with acute myocardial infarction with respect to electrocardiographic localization. Hemodynamic profiles of the different localizations suggest a high incidence of right ventricular dysfunction in infero-posterior infarcts. The comparison with the other localizations suggests that such a right ventricular dysfunction is likely to be responsible for an additional underestimation of left ventricular end-diastolic pressure when estimated by pulmonary diastolic pressure.
