Objectives: The goal of the study was to determine the effect of decreased preload on right ventricular systolic function, as measured by new and old echocardiographic parameters in chronic renal failure (CRF) patients. Study design: A total of 30 CRF patients (mean age 48 +- 15 years and 19 female)...
