Echocardiographic Right Atrial and Right Ventricular 2-D and M-Mod Indices
Patients on HD presented significantly lower TAPSE values compared to PD patients and controls (17.99 ± 3.91, 22.60 ± 4.75 and 25.57 ± 4.33 mm, respectively; p<0.001). We found no significant difference in right atrial diameters and FAC values among dialysis groups. Right ventricular basal diameters were significantly higher in HD patients compared to controls (Table 3).
