Prevalence and prognostic value of various types of right ventricular dysfunction in mechanically ventilated septic patients

Prevalence and prognostic value of various types of right ventricular dysfunction in mechanically ventilated septic patients

Abstract Introduction Right ventricle (RV) dilation in combination with elevated central venous pressure (CVP), which is a state of RV congestion, is seen as a sign of RV failure (RVF). On the other hand, RV systolic function is usually assessed by tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE)...
