Table 1 Ultrasonic cardiography indices in the 3 groups at 2 postoperative weeks.
| Groups (n=10) | LA (mm/m2) | LV (mm/m2) | IVS (mm/m2) | LVEF (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sham | 73.54±8.21 | 139.77±12.75 | 36.13±6.60 | 70.68±2.05 |
| Control | 69.35±15.38 | 155.92±14.74# | 31.41±4.23# | 45.85±12.78# |
| NIPPV | 69.73±13.47 | 149.35±11.29# | 31.59±6.92# | 59.59±2.69# |
| LA – left atrial diameter; LV – left ventricular diameter; IVS – interventricular septum thickness; LVEF – left ventricular ejection fraction; NIPPV – noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation. # Compared with the sham group, * Compared with the control group, | ||||
