LOINC description : Tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) is the distance the tricuspid annulus
is displaced during systole and is a reflection of right ventricular function. TAPSE
is measured by M-mode ultrasound between end-diastole and peak systole, and a result
of 17 mm is highly suggestive of right ventricular systolic dysfunction. [PMID: 25559473];
