Predictive Value of Noninvasive Right Ventricular to Pulmonary Artery Uncoupling for Right Ventricular Failure After Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
Preoperative RV-PA uncoupling, assessed using the TAPSE/PASP ratio, may predict eRVF following dLVAD implantation. This parameter is clinically accessible and valuable for preoperative risk stratification and may facilitate improved perioperative management.
