Right Ventricular?Vascular Uncoupling Predicts Pulmonary Hypertension in Clinically Diagnosed Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

Journal of the American Heart Association

We aimed to determine possible echocardiographic parameters to predict the presence of PH in patients with HFpEFMethods and ResultsA total of 113 patients with HFpEF were prospectively enrolled from November 2017 to July 2022. TAPSE/PASP and TAS’/PASP can be useful parameters to detect PH in patients with HFpEF.

Management and outcomes of carcinoid heart disease with liver metastases of midgut neuroendocrine tumours

Heart BMJ

Methods From January 2003 to June 2022, consecutive patients with liver metastases of midgut NETs and severe CHD (severe valve disease with symptoms and/or right ventricular enlargement) were included at Beaujon and Bichat hospitals. A postoperative positive right ventricular remodelling was observed (p<0.001).

What is going on in V2 and V3, with a troponin I rising to 1826 ng/L at 4 hours?

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

This suggests that there is pulmonary hypertension and thus possibly RVH. Severe tricuspid regurgitation. --The The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is 31 mmHg + RA pressure. That condition is tricuspid stenosis, which is rare. There is, however, a very peaked P wave in lead II (a "peaked P pulmonale").

A young lady with wide complex tachycardia. My first time actually making this diagnosis de novo in real life in the ED!

Dr. Smith's ECG Blog

CXR confirmed bilateral pulmonary edema and bilateral small effusions. There is mild-moderate tricuspid valve regurgitation. For review of a case of RVOT VT — Please see My Comment at the bottom of the page in the February 14, 2022 post in Dr. Smith's ECG Blog. The basal anterior wall and basal septum are hypokinetic.
