Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the impact of right ventricular (RV) structure and function on in-hospital outcomes like mortality and ICU admission in COVID-19 patients without prior pulmonary hypertension.
- It involved analyzing records from 997 patients, with 194 undergoing echocardiography; overall mortality was 27%, with higher rates observed in the ICU.
- Results indicated that RV dilatation and decreased RV systolic function are associated with increased mortality, particularly in ICU patients who did not require additional mechanical support.
