Right ventricular uncoupling in acute heart failure with preserved or mildly reduced ejection fraction: a simple parameter to predict long-term mortality
In patients hospitalized for AHF with preserved and mildly reduced ejection fraction, RV-PA uncoupling, as determined by the TAPSE/sPAP ratio, was independently associated with long-term all-cause mortality. This echocardiographic parameter may help identify a subgroup of patients at higher risk during follow-up.
