Key result
Non-ischaemic heart failure aetiology was associated with increased odds of low TAPSE (≤ 14 mm) compared to ischaemic aetiology (OR 9.8; 95% CI 3.8-25.6; P<0.001).

Non-ischaemic aetiology may flag higher RV dysfunction risk in severe LVSD; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Observational (n=119)
Effect estimate: OR 9.8 (95% CI 3.8-25.6)
p-value: p=<0.001
In patients with severe LV systolic dysfunction, reduced TAPSE is independently associated with LVEF, deceleration time of LV filling, and RV end-diastolic diameter.
Ereminienė et al. (2012) conducted an observational in Stable heart failure with severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction (n=119). Non-ischaemic heart failure aetiology vs. Ischaemic heart failure aetiology was evaluated on Low TAPSE (<= 14 mm) (OR 9.8, 95% CI 3.8-25.6, p=<0.001). Non-ischaemic heart failure aetiology was associated with increased odds of low TAPSE (≤ 14 mm) compared to ischaemic aetiology (OR 9.8; 95% CI 3.8-25.6; P<0.001).
