Association of right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary hypertension with adverse 30‐day outcomes in COVID‐19 patients

Abstract

Right ventricular dysfunction, pulmonary hypertension, and moderate to severe tricuspid regurgitation were associated with increased odds for 30-day inpatient mortality. This study highlights the importance of echocardiography and its clinical utility and prognostic value for evaluating hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
