Feasibility and discriminatory value of tissue motion annular displacement in sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy: a single-center retrospective observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

There is no formal diagnostic criterion for sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SICM), but left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) < 50% was the most commonly used standard. Tissue motion annular displacement (TMAD) is a novel speckle tracking indicator to quickly assess LV longitudinal systolic function. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and discriminatory value of TMAD for predicting SICM, as well as prognostic value of TMAD for mortality.

Methods

We conducted a single-center retrospective observational study in patients with sepsis or septic shock who underwent echocardiography examination within the first 24 h after admission. Basic clinical information and conventional echocardiographic data, including mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE),
