Abstract
m-TAPSE validated a good correlation to RV systolic function as reflected by RV FAC for both HT and LVAD. For HT, m-TAPSE was helpful for predicting postoperative NO use; whereas for LVAD, m-TAPSE was helpful for predicting postoperative NO use and RV assist device implantation. m-TAPSE should be considered as a useful parameter to decide postoperative management for these cases.
