Transesophageal Echocardiography Transthoracic Echocardiography TAPSE

Sponsor: Aydin Adnan Menderes University

Summary

Modified TAPSE (m-TAPSE) is a new method in which TAPSE is measured by taking the difference between the apical and lateral tricuspid annulus distance during diastole and systole. It can be measured using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in the mid-esophageal four-chamber (ME 4CH) view and is an alternative easily measurable parameter for intraoperative assessment of RV systolic function as long as optimal imaging quality is achieved. In this prospective observational study, between 01.02.2024 and 15.07.2026, patients between the ages of 1-18 will undergo transcatheterization procedures using TTE and TEE under anesthesia by a pediatric cardiologist. TAPSE of these patients will be measured by TTE and TEE. TAPSE of the patients will be evaluated with TTE and TOE.
