2. Figure 1
RV/LV length ratio and AVVI are shown in the small RV/BVR group (diamonds), the control/BVR group (circles), and the SV palliation group (asterisks). Most patients in the small RV/BVR group are within the left and inferior quadrant (rectangle) defined by an RV/LV ratio and AVVI both less than 1. Although 2 patients with a diagnosis of small RV had an AVVI of greater than 1, they had among the lowest RV/LV ratios. Patients undergoing SV palliation had either a small AVVI or small RV/LV ratio.
