Abstract

Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction and pulmonary uncoupling are two acknowledged features associated with poor outcome, however few data defined RV adaptation across the different left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) cut-off. Additionally, less data are reported in patients with acute heart failure (AHF). Right-Ventricular (RV) adaptation and RV pulmonary coupling differ in AHF according to the level of LVEF. S' wave, and S'/PASP are associated with adverse outcome in patients with preserved EF; reduced TAPSE and TAPSE/PASP are better prognostic predictors in patients with reduced EF.
