Interchangeability of Right Ventricle Longitudinal Shortening in Echocardiography (RVLSBO)

September 16, 2025 updated by: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens

Interchangeability of Right Ventricle Longitudinal Shortening Fraction Measurements Performed by Trans-thoracic and Trans-esophageal Echocardiography in the Operating Room

RV longitudinal shortening fraction (RV-SLF) is based on the analysis of the tricuspid annulus displacement (TAD) and can be performed in transthoracic (TTE) or transoesophageal echocardiography (TEE). Having an 2D-STE interchangeable parameter would allow accurate measurement of RV systolic function before, during and after cardiac surgery. However, to date, there are no data on the interchangeability of RV-LSF measurements performed in TTE and TEE.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the interchangeability of TTE and TEE measurements of RV-LSF during cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.
