we studied the effect of short-term intravenous administration of amrinone on right ventricular systolic function in nine patients with severe congestive heart failure and , using radionuclide ventriculography , examined the right ventricular end-systolic pressure-volume relationship to determine whether reduced right ventricular afterload or increased contractility predominantly accounted for the observed improvement in right ventricular systolic function .
