Echocardiographic findings in a patient with ischemic cardiomyopathy. A & B Dilated right ventricular end-systolic area (ESA) and end-diastolic area (EDA), as well as dilated right atrium (RA); & impaired RV fractional area change (FAC = 34%); C Impaired RV longitudinal strain; longitudinal RV free wall strain (RV FWS = − 13.9) and right ventricular four-chamber strain (RV4CSL = − 9.5%); D & E Parasternal short axis view, at papillary muscle level, showing septal shift towards the left ventricle, mainly during systole; F Continuous wave Doppler of the tricuspid valve showing high regurgitant jet velocity and estimated PASP = 65 mmHg
