Clinical Value of a Novel Three-Dimensional Echocardiography–Derived Index of Right Ventricle–Pulmonary Artery Coupling in Tricuspid Regurgitation
Structured PICO
Is the 3D echocardiography-derived index of RV-PA coupling (RV forward SV/ESV) associated with the risk for death and heart failure hospitalization in patients with secondary tricuspid regurgitation?

A novel 3D echocardiography-derived index of RV-PA coupling (RV forward SV/ESV) serves as a prognostic marker for death and heart failure hospitalization in patients with secondary tricuspid regurgitation.
Abstract
RV forward SV/ESV is associated with the risk for death and heart failure hospitalization in patients with STR.
