“…Echocardiographic estimation of PAP provides an invaluable noninvasive and safe screening tool for increased PA pressure that warrants further follow-up and investigation. Similarly, echocardiography is a more feasible, bedside option of measuring RV function and structure compared to the gold standard, cardiac MRI [19].…”

Background and objective Pre-eclampsia (PEC) is associated with the release of anti-angiogenic factors that are incriminated in raising systemic and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). Compared to the left heart and systemic circulation, much less attention has been paid to the right heart and pulmonary circulation in patients with PEC. We used transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) to estimate pulmonary artery (PA) pressure and right ventricular (RV) function in women with PEC. Materials and methods We conducted a case-control study at a tertiary care academic center. Ten early PEC (<34-week gestation) and nine late PEC (≥34-week gestation) patients with 11 early and 10 late gestational age-matched controls were enrolled. Two-dimensional TTE was performed on all patients. The estimated mean PA pressure (eMPAP) was calculated based on PA acceleration time (PAAT). PVR was estimated from eMPAP and RV cardiac output (RV CO). RV myocardial performance index (RV MPI), tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), tissue tricuspid annular displacement (TTAD), and lateral tricuspid annular tissue peak systolic velocity (S') were measured.

Objectives: Much less attention has been given to the right heart and pulmonary circulation compared to the left heart and systemic circulation in patients with pre-eclampsia (PEC). We used transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) to estimate pulmonary artery pressure and right ventricular function in women with PEC. Methods: A case-control study at a tertiary care academic center. Ten early PEC (<34 week gestation) and nine late PEC (≥34 weeks gestation) patients with eleven early and ten late gestational age-matched controls. Two dimensional TTE was performed on all patients. The estimated mean PA pressure (eMPAP) was calculated based on pulmonary artery acceleration time (PAAT). Pulmonary vascular resistance (ePVR) was estimated from eMPAP and right ventricular (RV) cardiac output. RV myocardial performance index (RV MPI), tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), tissue tricuspid annular displacement (TTAD) and lateral tricuspid annular tissue peak systolic velocity (S’) were measured. Results Compared to early controls, in early PEC the eMPAP and ePVR were elevated, PAAT was reduced, RV MPI was increased, TTAD was reduced and TAPSE and TV S’ were unchanged. Compared to late controls, in late PEC, estimated MPAP and estimated PVR were elevated, PAAT was reduced and RVMPI was increased, while TAPSE, TTAD and TV S’ were unchanged. Conclusions: Early PEC is associated with increased eMPAP and ePVR. A subclinical decrement of RV function is noticed. TTE is a useful screening tool for early detection of PH and RV dysfunction in PEC.

“…TTE is widely available and relatively less expensive. Generally, TTE is used for anatomical and left ventricular (LV) function assessments even though it is less accurate, due to its low spatial resolution and high intra-observer variability [ 2 , 7 , 8 ].…”

“…All three modalities use Simpson's rule to calculate the cardiac chambers' end-diastolic volumes (EDV) and end-systolic volumes (ESV) [ 3 , 4 , 7 ]. The chambers' endocardial borders are marked on each slice, the luminal area is multiplied by the slice thickness, and the volumes of the slices are then added to obtain the chambers' volumes during the cardiac cycle [ 3 , 7 ]. Standardized evaluations include the ventricles, without the outflow tracts.…”
