Abstract:
Objective To evaluate right ventricular function of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) patients by echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR),and to evaluate the value of clinical application of those right heart function indexes.Methods 32 patients with CTEPH who underwent CMR and echocardiography were involved in the study.Right ventricular index of myocardial performance (RIMP),fractional area change (FAC),tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and tissue Doppler-derived tricuspid lateral annular systolic velocity (S') were measured by echocardiography.Right ventricular end-diastolic volume (RVEDV) and end-systolic volume (RVESV) were measured by cardiac magnetic resonance and right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) was calculated.Results A positive correlation was found between FAC and RVEF (r =0.423,P =0.022),there was a negative correlation between RIMP and RVEF (r =-0.387,P =0.048),there was no correlation between TAPSE and RVEF (r =0.451,P =0.22),a positive correlation was found between S' and RVEF (r =0.689,P =0.000).Conclusions The echocardiographic parameters FAC,RIMP and S' can reflect right ventricular function in patients with CTEPH and can be used as a routine clinical parameters.
