Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) ratio has been validated as a valuable noninvasive measure of right ventricular (RV) elastance and systolic function. However, the more reliable TA systolic (s’) velocity measure of RV systolic function compared to TAPSE has not been previously studied.
