“…There is a negative correlation between TAPSE score and PAP. It was observed that the score decreases in patients with high PAP [11]. In our study, MPAP values decreased in post-operation follow ups and this has been parallel to clinical recovery.…”

“…RV TDI variables were found to correlate well with invasive pulmonary haemodynamics in patients with paediatric PH-CHD and were suggested to be useful variables in the follow-up of children with IPAH 35. TDI investigations of patients with paediatric PH revealed lower S′ and early diastolic (E) velocities at the tricuspid, septal and LV lateral wall compared with controls 36. In patients with paediatric PH, abnormalities in systolic and diastolic ventricular function were also identified and shown to be more prominent with older age 37.…”

“…2,3 Other echocardiographic indices of RV systolic performance, such as tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) 4 and the myocardial performance index (MPI), 5 have shown promise as predictors of outcome in adults with PAH. 6,7 Prior studies have shown that children with PAH have significantly lower TAPSE 8 and higher (more abnormal) MPI. 9 RV stroke work (RVSW), which incorporates stroke volume and systolic pressure, may be more representative of both static and dynamic workload and therefore may be a determinant of RV failure and clinical outcomes.…”
