| ventricular diverticulum | A congenital outpouching of the right or left ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| ventricular dysfunction | A condition in which the ventricles of the heart exhibit a decreased functionality. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventricular dysfunction, left | A condition in which the left ventricle of the heart exhibits a decreased functionality. This decreased function could lead to congestive heart failure or myocardial infarction, among other cardiovascular diseases. Diagnostic measurements that indicate this condition include a diminished ejection fraction and a depressed level of motility of the left ventricular wall. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventricular dysfunction, right | A condition in which the right ventricle of the heart exhibits a decreased functionality. This decreased function could lead to congestive heart failure or myocardial infarction, among other cardiovascular diseases. Diagnostic measurements that indicate this condition include a diminished ejection fraction and a depressed level of motility of the right ventricular wall. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventricular extrasystole | A premature contraction of the ventricle. Synonym: infranodal extrasystole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular fibrillation | <cardiology> A disorganised chaotic contraction of the ventricle that fails to effectively eject blood from the ventricle. During ventricular fibrillation the patient is unconscious and will die if emergency intervention is not undertaken (defibrillation). (12 Jan 1998) |
| ventricular filling pressure | The pressure in the ventricle as it fills with blood, ordinarily equivalent to the mean atrial pressure when there is no A-V valvular gradient. Atrial pressure can be used in place of transmural pressure because pericardial pressure usually varies between -2 and +2 mm Hg and hence is negligible. During cardiac tamponade, pericardial and atrial pressures equilibrate so that transmural pressure is zero and the high atrial presures cannot be "filling" pressures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular fluid | The portion of the cerebrospinal fluid that is contained in the ventricles of the brain. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular flutter | A form of rapid ventricular tachycardia in which the electrocardiographic complexes assume a regular undulating pattern without distinct QRS and T waves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular fold | One of the pair of folds of mucous membrane stretching across the laryngeal cavity from the angle of the thyroid cartilage to the arytenoid cartilage; they enclose a space called the rima vestibuli or false glottis. Synonym: plica vestibularis, false vocal cord, plica ventricularis, ventricular band of larynx, ventricular fold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular function | The haemodynamic and electrophysiological action of the ventricles. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventricular function, left | The haemodynamic and electrophysiological action of the left ventricle. Its measurement is an important aspect of the clinical evaluation of patients with heart disease to determine the effects of the disease on cardiac performance. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventricular function, right | The haemodynamic and electrophysiological action of the right ventricle. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventricular fusion beat | A fusion beat that occurs when the ventricles are activated partly by the descending sinus or A-V junctional impulse and partly by an ectopic ventricular impulse. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricular gradient | The algebraic sum of (i.e., the net electrical difference between) the area enclosed within the QRS complex and that within the T wave in the electrocardiogram. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventricle |
The chambers of the heart that pump the blood to the body or lungs.

|---|---|
| ventricular fibrillation |
A fast, chaotic heart rhythm that prevents the heart from pumping blood. This life-threatening arrhythmia requires immediate emergency treatment.

| ventricular tachycardia |
A rapid heart rhythm that originates in the ventricles. This is a serious arrhythmia that can be life-threatening without emergency treatment.
