Echocardiographic Assessment After Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension: Which Parameters Reflect Improved Right Ventricular Function? [PDF]
Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Traditional echocardiographic measures of right ventricular (RV) function, such as tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and peak systolic velocity at the tricuspid annulus (S’), may be unreliable after cardiac surgery due to changes in loading conditions and myocardial mechanics. This study aimed to evaluate RV function following
