Abstract

Objective: To investigate TAPSE and speckle-tracking derived right ventricular longitudinal strain in patients with chronic coronary syndromes. Subject and method: A prospective, descriptive and
cross-sectional study was conducted on 61 patients with chronic coronary syndromes, treated at Cardiovascular Center of 103 Military Hospital, from 2022 to May 2023. Patients underwent echocardiography to assess TAPSE and right ventricular longitudinal strain according to ASE 2010.
 Result: Mean TAPSE in study was 20.36 ± 3.35mm, TAPSE decreased in 13.11% of patients. Mean RVGLS and RVFWSL was respectively -17.18 ± 5.13% and -21.46 ± 6.14%. The number of patients with RVGLS and RVFWSL abnormalities accounted for 42.63% and 32.79%, respectively. RVGLS and RVFWSL had a moderate negative correlation with NT-ProBNP (p<0.05; r: -0.41 and r: -0.39, respectively) and a moderate positive correlation with EF (p<0.05; r: 0.39 and r: 0.38, respectively). Conclusion: Mean TAPSE in study was 20.36 ± 3.35mm. Mean RVGLS and RVFWSL was respectively -17.18 ± 5.13% and
-21.46 ± 6.14%. The number of patients with TAPSE, RVGLS and RVFWSL abnormalities accounted for 13.11%, 42.63% and 32.79%, respectively. Right ventricular longitudinal strain had a moderate negative correlation with NT-proBNP and a moderate positive correlation with LVEF.
