Noninvasive evaluation of right atrial pressure
2013, Journal of the American Society of EchocardiographyCitation Excerpt :However, when measured from the ventricular side in the apical four-chamber view, respiration affects only the maximum velocity of the E wave, without greatly affecting the E/A ratio.58 In contrast to mitral flow, on which age has an important effect, Pye et al.59 found that there was no significant correlation between any tricuspid flow parameter and age, although two smaller studies did find weak correlations.60,61 Scapellato et al.62 used tricuspid Doppler to estimate RAP, finding a significant correlation with RAP (r = 0.98).

2009, American Journal of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :The findings of the present study in the nonathletic subjects confirm and extend these previous observations. For the right ventricle, this is less well established, and even not observed in 1 study.25 Our study showed a similar trend toward decreased RV diastolic function resembling that for the left ventricle.
Expanding Role of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance in Left and Right Ventricular Diastolic Function
2009, Heart Failure ClinicsCitation Excerpt :Some recent echocardiographic and CMR studies on right ventricular diastolic function have provided important insights. Using color Doppler of the tricuspid valve, Pye and colleagues51 found no significant correlation between any tricuspid flow parameters and age. This is in contrast to transmitral flow, on which age has an important effect.
Effect of a cardiac rehabilitation program on left ventricular diastolic function and its relationship to exercise capacity in patients with coronary heart disease: Experience from a randomized, controlled study
2004, American Heart JournalCitation Excerpt :LV diastolic dysfunction was classified as abnormal relaxation pattern (ARP) (defined as transmitral early to atrial filling velocity ratio [MV-E/A] <1 or MV-E/A = 1 to 2 and deceleration time of early filling [MV-DT] >240 ms), restrictive filling pattern (RFP) (defined as MV-E/A ratio ≥2 or MV-E/A = 1 to 2 and MV-DT <140 ms),11,17,18 or pseudonormal pattern (defined as normal transmitral pattern but abnormal pulmonary venous flow profile with pulmonary venous flow reversal exceeding the duration of the mitral A wave or reverse in systolic to diastolic forward flow ratio).19,20 The reproducibility of Doppler echocardiographic measurement has been ascertain previously with small intra- and interobserver variability.21 Data were analyzed using a statistical software program (SPSS for Windows, V.10.0, SPSS Inc, Chicago, Ill).
