“…In the present study we used Tei index or myocardial performance index which give clue of systolic and diastolic function to predict weaning failure. Many studies were done on relation between Tei index, mortality, right and left clinical and subclinical ventricular function, corpulmonale and pulmonary hypertension [19]- [24]. But to my knowledge no published studies till now on weaning in current study good correlation with weaning was found and superior to pro BNP.…”

“…This correlation can be explained by that which exists between variations in PaO2 and pulmonary arterial pressure [18]. There is a monumental worsening of PAH during episodes of exacerbation of COPD which is explained by the worsening of hypoxemia and hypercapnia [2,19]. The right ventricular function ultrasound assessment is complex due to the anatomy and position of the LV, thus requiring the combination of several parameters.…”

“…Botelho [19] as well as Ozben [20] also found, by comparing the results before and after the treatment of the COPD exacerbation, a relatively stable Tei index, but there was a significant difference notably for the isovolumic acceleration [20] (p = 0.013). The alteration of at least 3 indices of the systolic function of RV in the same subject was present in 62.5% of patients with severe or very severe COPD against 21.4% of cases of mild to moderate COPD (p = 0.0235 ).…”
