Echocardiographic and Hemodynamic Predictors of Survival in Precapillary Pulmonary Hypertension

Abstract: Consecutive patients with precapillary PH referred to the National Pulmonary Hypertension Service at Hammersmith Hospital between Background-In this study, we looked at the prognostic value of echocardiographic and hemodynamic measures in a large cohort of patients with precapillary pulmonary hypertension before and after initiation of treatment. were independent predictors of mortality. High pulmonary vascular resistance and right atrial pressure by invasive hemodynamic measurements were independent predictor… Show more

“…Right ventricular index of myocardial performance has been found to be a prognostic marker in patients with pulmonary hypertension, both as a single measurement, as well as when evaluated serially [19]. It has been studied in right ventricular infarction, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and congenital heart disease.…”

“…Although they are closely interrelated, the association between them is not always linear, and it is not uncommon to find discordant degrees of PASP and RV remodeling/FTR in routine clinical practice. Additionally, in advanced stages of PH, PASP can paradoxically drop due to RV failure and cardiac output decrease, and, conversely, increased PASP may reflect high volume or hyperdynamic states rather than pulmonary vascular disease. In this regard and resembling aortic stenosis in which valve gradient alone is not sufficient to assess aortic stenosis severity, pulmonary pressure gradients are flow dependent and may not properly reflect the pulmonary vascular status.…”

“…Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has been described as a possible cause of pericardial effusion, and it may represent a necessary condition for the development and maintenance of pericardial effusion [12][13][14]. However, this issue has not been addressed among patients with ESRD.…”
