Effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on porcine right ventricle function assessed by speckle tracking echocardiography

BACKGROUND: Right ventricle (RV) dysfunction and hypotension can be induced by high levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). We sought to determine in an animal model if a novel ultrasound analysis technique: speckle tracking echocardiography (STE), could determine deterioration in RV func...
