“…This is consistent with the results of previous studies, and with the notion that the right ventricle could be more suited to the assessment of longitudinal motion, owing to the longitudinal nature of its fibers as opposed to left ventricle fibers, which are mainly circumferential. TAPSE has also shown a higher reproducibility and lower variability than other more commonly used cardiovascular measurements.…”

“…To our knowledge, this is the first study that has evaluated longitudinal motion using M‐mode in IUGR fetuses as a potential tool for describing subclinical cardiac dysfunction in this group. M‐mode and TDI results in children who had suffered IUGR and reports on the fetal and adult heart show good correlation between these methods. In this study, differences in longitudinal motion were more pronounced by M‐mode in the right annulus (TAPSE).…”

“…When the mean differences in Z ‐scores between groups were compared, a similar performance could be observed for M‐mode measurements as for TDI. This could be partially explained by a higher reproducibility achieved in the clinical setting, and lesser requirements with regards to degree of expertise and ultrasound software/equipment for M‐mode as compared to TDI. Thus, M‐mode might provide a simpler means of measuring annular motion for assessing fetal cardiac dysfunction in the context of IUGR, and possibly more generally.…”

Objective To compare the ability of two different methods for longitudinal annular motion measurement, M-mode and tissue Doppler imaging (TDI), to demonstrate cardiac dysfunction in intrauterine-growthrestricted (IUGR) fetuses. Methods Cardiac longitudinal annular motion in the basal free wall of the left ventricle (mitral annulus), interventricular septum and tricuspid annulus was assessed in 23 early-onset IUGR cases and 43 controls by TDI (annular peak velocities) and M-mode (displacement).

BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases form the major cause of death in patients with end-stage renal disease, among which heart failure predominates the list. Right ventricular dysfunction significantly contributes to the cause of morbidity and mortality in chronic kidney disease patients. We observed for the presence of right ventricular dysfunction in stages 3 and 4 of chronic kidney disease patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS We enrolled 100 patients with chronic kidney disease stages 3 and 4 with glomerular filtration rate of 15-60 mL/mins./1.73 sq. m. based on MDRD formula. Two dimensional and M-mode echocardiography was performed in these patients. TAPSE values were used to assess right ventricular dysfunction and Right Ventricular End-Diastolic Diameter (RVEDD) was used to identify the presence of RV dilatation. CONCLUSION Right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension start early and progresses as the chronic kidney disease progresses. Hence, early detection of RV dysfunction by TAPSE and measurement of SPAP for pulmonary hypertension by echocardiogram, which is a noninvasive and cost-effective modality could help in prognostication and better management of these patients. RESULTS 35% of the study group had TAPSE value less than 16 mm suggestive of right ventricular dysfunction. 24 patients had right ventricular end-diastolic diameter more than 26 mm denoting the presence of RV dilatation. TAPSE values had a positive correlation with GFR. Renal parameters like urea, creatinine, calcium, phosphorus were significantly higher among the patients with right ventricular dysfunction compared to patients with no evidence of right ventricular dysfunction.
