“…42 In about half of the reports of pre-tricuspid shunts, catheterisation was not repeated after surgery and authors relied on Doppler echocardiography alone for the estimation of PA pressure, thereby underestimating to an extent and also making it difficult to assess an average change in PVRI due to TDT in this population. 28,29,31,36,[42][43][44] In the retrospective series by Bradley et al, 12 patients with ASD and severe PAH with PVR >6 WU and PVR/ SVR >0.3 were treated with TDT for a duration of 6-12 months. Five of them responded with >30% reduction in PVR with final PVR <6 WU and underwent ASD closure.…”
