Application and Validation of the Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion/Systolic Pulmonary Artery Pressure Ratio in Patients with Ischemic and Non-Ischemic Cardiomyopathy.

ABSTRACT: The main aim of this study was to assess the prognostic utility of TAPSE/PASP as an echocardiographic parameter of maladaptive RV remodeling in cardiomyopathy patients using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. Furthermore, we sought to compare TAPSE/PASP to TAPSE. The association of the echocardiographic parameters TAPSE/PASP and TAPSE with CMR parameters of RV and LV remodeling was evaluated in 111 patients with ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy and cut-off values for maladaptive RV remodeling were defined. In a second step, the prognostic value of TAPSE/PASP and its cut-off value were analyzed regarding mortality in a validation cohort consisting of 221 patients with ischemic and non-ischemic cardiomyopathy. A low TAPSE/PASP (<0.38 mm/mmHg) and TAPSE (<16 mm) were associated with a lower RVEF and a long-axis RV global longitudinal strain (GLS) as well as higher RVESVI, RVEDVI and NT-proBNP. A low TAPSE/PASP, but not TAPSE, was associated with a lower LVEF and long-axis LV GLS, and a higher LVESVI, LVEDVI and T1 relaxation time at the interventricular septum and the RV insertion points. Furthermore, in the validation cohort, low TAPSE/PASP was associated with a higher mortality and TAPSE/PASP was an independent predictor of mortality. TAPSE/PASP is a predictor of maladaptive RV and LV remodeling associated with poor outcomes in cardiomyopathy patients.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The ratios of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE)/echocardiographically measured systolic pulmonary artery pressure (PASP), fractional area change/invasively measured mean pulmonary artery pressure, right ventricular (RV) area change/end-systolic area, TAPSE/pulmonary artery acceleration time, and stroke volume/end-systolic area have been proposed as surrogates of RV-arterial coupling. The relationship of these surrogates with the gold standard measure of RV-arterial coupling (invasive pressure-volume loop-derived end-systolic/arterial elastance [Ees/Ea] ratio) and RV diastolic stiffness (end-diastolic elastance) in pulmonary hypertension remains incompletely understood. We evaluated the relationship of these surrogates with invasive pressure-volume loop-derived Ees/Ea and end-diastolic elastance in pulmonary hypertension. METHODS:We performed right heart echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging 1 day before invasive measurement of pulmonary hemodynamics and single-beat RV pressure-volume loops in 52 patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension or chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. The relationships of the proposed surrogates with Ees/Ea and end-diastolic elastance were evaluated by Spearman correlation, multivariate logistic regression, and receiver operating characteristic analyses. Associations with prognosis were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. RESULTS:TAPSE/PASP, fractional area change/mean pulmonary artery pressure, RV area change/end-systolic area, and stroke volume/end-systolic area but not TAPSE/pulmonary artery acceleration time were correlated with Ees/Ea and end-diastolic elastance. Of the surrogates, only TAPSE/PASP emerged as an independent predictor of Ees/Ea (multivariate odds ratio: 18.6; 95% CI, 0.8-96.1; P=0.08). In receiver operating characteristic analysis, a TAPSE/PASP cutoff of 0.31 mm/mm?Hg (sensitivity: 87.5% and specificity: 75.9%) discriminated RV-arterial uncoupling (Ees/Ea <0.805). Patients with TAPSE/PASP <0.31 mm/mm?Hg had a significantly worse prognosis than those with higher TAPSE/PASP. CONCLUSIONS:Echocardiographically determined TAPSE/PASP is a straightforward noninvasive measure of RV-arterial coupling and is affected by RV diastolic stiffness in severe pulmonary hypertension.

Project description:BackgroundAcute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in up to 50% of all critically ill patients and hemodynamic abnormalities are assumed to contribute, but their nature and share is still unclear. We explored the associations between hemodynamic variables, including cardiac index and right ventricular function, and the occurrence of AKI in critically ill patients.MethodsIn this prospective cohort study, we included all patients acutely admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU). Within 24 h after ICU admission clinical and hemodynamic variables were registered including ultrasonographic measurements of cardiac index and right ventricular function, assessed using tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and right ventricular systolic excursion (RV S'). Maximum AKI stage was assessed according to the KDIGO criteria during the first 72 h after admission. Multivariable logistic regression modeling was used including both known predictors and univariable significant predictors of AKI. Secondary outcomes were days alive outside ICU and 90-day mortality.ResultsA total of 622 patients were included, of which 338 patients (54%) had at least AKI stage 1 within 72 h after ICU admission. In the final multivariate model higher age (OR 1.01, 95% CI 1.00-1.03, for each year), higher weight (OR 1.03 CI 1.02-1.04, for each kg), higher APACHE IV score (OR 1.02, CI 1.01-1.03, per point), lower mean arterial pressure (OR 1.02, CI 1.01-1.03, for each mmHg decrease) and lower TAPSE (OR 1.05, CI 1.02-1.09 per millimeter decrease) were all independent predictors for AKI in the final multivariate logistic regression model. Sepsis, cardiac index, RV S' and use of vasopressors were not significantly associated with AKI in our data. AKI patients had fewer days alive outside of ICU, and their mortality rate was significantly higher than those without AKI.ConclusionsIn our cohort of acutely admitted ICU patients, the incidence of AKI was 54%. Hemodynamic variables were significantly different between patients with and without AKI. A worse right ventricle function was associated with AKI in the final model, whereas cardiac index was not.
