Does bedside echocardiography of TAPSE/PASP predict survival in patients with COVID-19 ARDS?
Bedside echocardiographic assessment of right ventricular-arterial uncoupling (TAPSE/PASP) provides additional prognostic value for survival beyond standard oxygenation metrics in COVID-19 ARDS.
COVID-19 ARDS is associated with clinically relevant uncoupling of right ventricular function from the pulmonary circulation; bedside echocardiography of TAPSE/PASP adds to the prognostic relevance of PaO2/FIO2 in ARDS on COVID-19.
D’Alto et al. (Mon,) studied this question.
