Predictors of right ventricular function as measured by tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion in heart failure

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Introduction</p> <p>Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (TAPSE) has independent prognostic value in heart failure patients but may be influenced by left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction. The present study assessed the association of TAPSE and...
