Objetivo

determinar el valor de referencia del desplazamiento sistólico del anillo tricúspide (TAPSE) en una población de pacientes sin comorbilidades.

Métodos

estudio descriptivo de pacientes adultos atendidos en un servicio de ecocardiografía, sin comorbilidades conocidas y con resultados normales de medidas bidimensionales, Doppler pulsado, continuo y tisular.

Resultados

se analizaron 557 pacientes, con edad (± DE) 43,7±15 años, mujeres 63,5%, quienes tuvieron función sistólica ventricular izquierda conservada (fracción de expulsión 59,8±1% y diámetro telediastólico VI 2,6±0,2cm/m2); no hubo evidencia de disfunción diastólica (onda e' del anillo mitral 12±3cm/s) o hipertensión pulmonar (presión sistólica de la arteria pulmonar 23,8±6mm Hg). El TAPSE promedio fue de 22,6±4mm, sin diferencia significativa entre hombres (23,1±4mm) y mujeres (22,4±3mm). Tampoco hubo variaciones importantes en los resultados de acuerdo con el peso normal, el sobrepeso o la obesidad: 22,6±4mm, 22,7±4mm y 22,7±4mm, respectivamente.

Conclusión

en pacientes con un amplio rango de edad sin enfermedad cardiaca izquierda o derecha y sin hipertensión pulmonar, el valor del TAPSE osciló entre 22mm y 23mm, con un valor inferior de normalidad de 18 mm para la población evaluada.

Objective

to determine the reference value of tricuspid annular systolic displacement (TAPSE) in a population of patients without comorbidities.

Methods

a descriptive study of adult patients attending an echocardiography service, with no known comorbidities and with normal two-dimensional and Doppler measurements (pulsed continuous and tissue Doppler).

Results

we analyzed 557 patients. Mean age was (± SD) 43.7±15 years. 63.5% were women. All had preserved left ventricular systolic function (ejection fraction 59.8±1% and 2.6 VI diastolic diameter ± 0.2cm/m2). There was no evidence of diastolic dysfunction (wave e ‘of the mitral annulus 12 ± 3 cm/s) or pulmonary hypertension (systolic pulmonary artery pressure 23.8 ± 6 mm Hg). The average TAPSE was 22.6±4mm, with no significant difference between men (23.1±4mm) and women (22.4±3 mm). No significant variations were found in the results according to normal weight, overweight or obesity: 22.6±4mm, 22.7mm and 22.7±4±4mm, respectively.

Conclusion

in patients with a wide range of age without left or right heart disease, and without pulmonary hypertension, the value of TAPSE ranged between 22mm and 23mm, with a lower normal limit value of 18mm for the population studied.
