RV Fractional Area Change and TAPSE as Predictors of Severe Right Ventricular Dysfunction in Pulmonary Hypertension: A CMR Study

Abstract: The RVFAC is a good index to estimate RVEF in PH patients; even better than the TAPSE in patients with more severe hemodynamic profile, possibly for including the transversal component of right ventricular function in its measurement. Furthermore, RVFAC performance was similar in the two PH groups (PAH and CTEPH).

“…Our results are in concordance with previous studies on FWS echo and FAC echo/CMR [11,17] presenting a strong correlation with RVEF CMR with a modest correlation for TAPSE/AVPD lat and a weak correlation for S' echo compared to RVEF CMR [11,17]. As expected, the parameters measuring of area and volume change are closely related.…”

“…As expected, the parameters measuring of area and volume change are closely related. In alignment with our study others have demonstrated a moderate correlation of RVEF CMR to AVPD lat [17] and FWS CMR [31,37]. The poor correlation between longitudinal measurements of RV function and RVEF CMR could be explained that RVEF is more related to fractional transverse movements than to longitudinal movements in patients with pulmonary hypertension [38].…”

“…This results in a greater contribution of transverse contraction to global RV function as measured by changes in septal-to free-wall distance. 8,14,29,[32][33][34][35][36] In these cases, measures of longitudinal function will not reflect global RV function. Strain analysis supports these conclusions.…”
