Official Title: Echocardiographic Assessment of Right Ventricular Function After Pulmonary Resection
Brief Summary:
Lung resection is associated with high postoperative morbidity and mortality and leads to a significant long-term decrease in functional capacity, particularly due to cardiorespiratory complications. One of the contributing factors to this functional decline is the postoperative reduction in right ventricular function. Due to the anatomical proximity and interactions, right ventricular function is evaluated by echocardiography following lung resection. The pulmonary artery pressure (PAP)/tricuspid annular plane…
