Assessment of Right Ventricular Systolic Function: Conventional Methods and Modified Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion

Feasibility study on evaluating right ventricular diastolic function by new Tei’-Index

“…We prefer to description of two issues with two indexes instead of one. Other researchers also found the classical RV Tei-index is more likely to evaluate the RV systolic function [ 13 , 20 ] and a detailed analysis of systolic and diastolic performance should not be replaced by a single measurement of the Tei-index [ 21 ].…”

Right ventricular dysfunction in cancer patients; Is it real or dilemma? A narrative review

“…TAPSE reveals longitudinal RV contractility (movement of the lateral part of the TV annulus toward RV apex). It is assessed by M-mode from apical 4 chamber view in Transthoracic Echocardiography (TTE) and is one of the useful methods because of simplicity and lower dependency to optimal imaging quality [7]. Velocity of tricuspid annulus longitudinal motion is evalu-ated by tissue Doppler as RV S' or systolic excursion velocity.…”
