560 The inclusion of pulmonary arterial pressure misclassifies diastolic function using the current EACVI guidelines in pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension Open
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PH) can be pre-capillary or post-capillary (PVH) etiology based on left-sided filling pressures and pulmonary vascular resistance. The 2016 EACVI/ASE Recommendations for the Evaluation of Left Ventricular…

Pulmonary capillary surface area in supine exercising humans: demonstration of vascular recruitment Open
In exercising humans, cardiac output (CO) increases, with minor increases in pulmonary artery pressure (PAP). It is unknown if the CO is accommodated via distention of already perfused capillaries or via recruitment of nonconcomitantly per…

Pregnancy as a Possible Trigger for Heritable Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Open
It is unclear whether pregnancy is a trigger or accelerant for idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Alternatively, its frequency close to the onset of symptoms and diagnosis in the idiopathic PAH population may represent a coi…
