Echocardiographic evaluations of right ventriculo–arterial coupling in experimental and clinical pulmonary hypertension

Abstract Background Tricuspid annular systolic excursion (TAPSE) or velocities (s′) and right ventricular (RV) end‐systolic dimensions are predictors of outcome in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH). We explored the value of combining peak s′ and RV end‐systolic area index (RVESAi) as a surro...
