Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the possible prognostic performance of RV dysfunction, as assessed by TAPSE, in non-cardiac patients with septic shock.
Detailed description
The objective is to investigate the prognostic performance of right ventricular dysfunction, as assessed by tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), in non-cardiac patients with septic shock.
