New data show the machine learning algorithms may be used to detect PCWP elevation, aiding in assessment of heart failure with preserved ejection ...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension is caused by narrowing of the blood vessels in the lungs. Learn how it happens, including ...

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can be a challenging complication to manage during pregnancy; women with PAH who are ...

Pulmonary hypertension is a common consequence of interstitial lung disease (PH-ILD), with the highest rate seen among ...

Because of the pulmonary vascular disease, the pulmonary-artery wedge pressure could not be determined. The clinical diagnosis was mitral stenosis, with severe pulmonary hypertension and secondary ...

A larger diameter of the main pulmonary artery predicts poorer outcomes in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients, a study found.

Inter-atrial shunt device therapy has shown mixed results in clinical trials, with clinical 'non-responders' typically showing features of more advanced heart failure. We aimed to analyse the ...

Rozenman and colleagues conducted a pilot trial to assess the feasibility of using a new implantable miniature device to monitor pulmonary artery pressure. Readings from the implantable device are ...

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is manifest when increased filling pressure (ie, left atrial, pulmonary capillary wedge and pulmonary artery diastolic pressures) is required in order to ...
