What is normal TAPSE range?
A measured TAPSE of 1.7 centimeters (cm) or greater was accepted as normal per the recommendations from the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE).
What is an abnormal TAPSE?
The greater the displacement, the better is right ventricular function—a value less than 16 mm is considered abnormal. TAPSE correlates closely with right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) measured by radionuclide angiography, the “gold standard” modality for assessment of right ventricular function.
What is a TAPSE score?
Tricuspid Annular Plane Systolic Excursion (TAPSE) is a scoring system that is used with non-invasive Doppler echocardiography to determine right ventricular (RV) function. This study analyzed TAPSE scores and adverse outcomes of isolated tricuspid valve surgery in patients with previous cardiac surgery.
What does low TAPSE mean?
A low TAPSE value is associated with lower cardiac index and worse survival [8, 11]. TAPSE is based on a one-dimensional measurement and is therefore only partially representative of global RV function. A TAPSE of <17 mm indicates RV dysfunction [18].
What is a normal TAPSE on Echo?
Normal values TAPSE <17 mm indicates right ventricular systolic dysfunction. TAPSE <14 mm indicates a poor prognosis in patients with chronic heart failure.
Can TAPSE improve?
The main finding of the present study is that in a population of incident and prevalent patients with PAH starting or escalating targeted therapy, attaining a TAPSE value above 15 mm after therapy predicts a better long-term outcome.
What is TAPSE and Mapse?
MAPSE was measured as the distance between the cutting edge of mitral annulus with LV lateral wall (L-MAPSE) or septum (S-MAPSE) captured at end-diastole (ED) and at end-systole (ES). TAPSE as the distance between the cutting edge of tricuspid annulus with RV free wall captured at end-diastole and at end-systole.
What is RV S on Echo?
A RV diameter >42 mm at the base and >35 mm at the mid-cavitary level indicates right ventricular dilatation; a longitudinal myocardial velocity (S’) <9.5 mm/s, a tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion <17 mm, and a fractional area change <35% are indices of right ventricular systolic dysfunction.
Is TAPSE a word?
Postoperative Echocardiographic Reduction of Right Ventricular Function: Is Pericardial Opening Modality the Main Culprit? We assessed right ventricular function by TAPSE, Sa and RV FAC….TAPSE.

What is TAPSE and Mapse in Echo?
The study presented here evaluated the usefulness of two echocardiographic parameters: MAPSE and TAPSE (mitral and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion), which determine the range of the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion by means of M-mode measurement in the apical four-chamber projection(1,2).
Is TAPSE load dependent?
RV quantitative echocardiographic measurements have shown differences in load dependency with both RVEF and TAPSE highly load-dependent.
What is the normal Mapse in Echo?
The average normal value of MAPSE derived from previous studies for the four annular regions (septal, anterior, lateral, and posterior) ranged between 12 and 15 mm3,14 and a value of MAPSE <8 mm was associated with a depressed LV EF (<50%) with a specificity of 82% and a sensitivity of 98%.
What is mild RV dilation?
We further defined mild and moderate categories by the standard deviation distance between normal and severely dilated and found the categories RV dilation by RV/LV volume ratio to be “mild” (1.27–1.69), “moderate” (1.70–2.29) and “severe” (≥2.30).

What is a normal Mapse?
MAPSE and ejection fraction The average normal value of MAPSE derived from previous studies for the four annular regions (septal, anterior, lateral, and posterior) ranged between 12 and 15 mm3,14 and a value of MAPSE <8 mm was associated with a depressed LV EF (<50%) with a specificity of 82% and a sensitivity of 98%.
