Abstrakt     The right ventricular function is crucial for maintenance the hemodynamic stability in critically ill patients who suffer from sudden increase of right ventricular pressure overload or severely decreased right ventricular contractility. The morphological and functional assessment of right ventricle is usually performed by bedside echocardiography and hemodynamic measurements with pulmonary artery catheter. The therapeutic approach to the patients with right ventricular failure includes measures for decrease of right ventricular afterload and improvement of its coronary perfusion and contractility.
