Right ventricular myocardial velocities and timing estimate pulmonary artery systolic pressure

Echocardiography of Chronic Right Heart Failure

“…It tends to underestimate the severity of PH in patients [62] with elevated RAP, e.g., due to a stiff right ventricle and raised end-diastolic pressure [63]. Also, it tends to underestimate the PA pressure in patients with significant tricuspid regurgitation, even in the absence of obvious organic tricuspid valve disease.…”

Echocardiography in intensive care

“…Výpočet středního tlaku v plicnici (PASP) = PGTR + CVP (mm Hg) dobře koreluje s invazivními hodnotami. 39 Jak již bylo zmíněno výše, systolická rychlost trikuspidálního anulu v TDI Sm > 10,5 cm/s znamená i normální PASP. 35 Odhad středního tlaku v plicnici…”

QT Dispersion and QTc Interval in Patients with Adult Sickle Cell Disease: Electrocardiographic (EKG) and Echocardiographic Evaluation

“…Pulse Doppler echocardiography is widely used as a noninvasive tool to assess the mitral and tricuspid flow for the assessment of diastolic function [9] [10]. The LV diastolic filling pattern on pulsed Doppler has been classified into normal, restrictive and abnormal relaxation pattern on the basis of relation between the early filling E wave and the late filling A wave on transmitral diastolic filling velocity [11].…”
