Comparison of Doppler echocardiography and right heart catheterization to assess pulmonary hypertension in systemic sclerosis.

Pulmonary hypertension (PHT) is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc). Echocardiography can be used to detect PHT and, with Doppler echocardiography, the pulmonary arterial systolic pressure (PASP) can often be estimated. We have undertaken a study to compare echocardiographic assessment with right heart catheterization (RHC) in 33 SSc patients in whom clinical assessment [inclu...

Racial differences in patients referred for right heart catheterization and risk of pulmonary hypertension

African Americans (AA) have a higher incidence of pulmonary hypertension (PH) risk factors. Few studies have examined the racial differences in the prevalence and etiology of PH and direct comparison of invasive hemodynamics between AAs and Caucasians has rarely been reported. In this study, we examined whether racial differences exist in patients referred for right heart catheterization (RHC) ...

Accuracy and precision of echocardiography versus right heart catheterization for the assessment of pulmonary hypertension.

BACKGROUND Echocardiographic studies have contributed to progress in the understanding of the pathophysiology of the pulmonary circulation and have been shown to be useful for screening for and prognostication of pulmonary hypertension, but are considered unreliable for the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension. We explored this apparent paradox with rigorous Bland and Altman analysis of the accu...

Right heart catheterization procedures in patients with suspicion of pulmonary hypertension – experiences of a tertiary center

Introduction Right heart catheterization (RHC) is an invasive procedure providing direct and accurate measurements of hemodynamics of the cardiovascular system. Acute pulmonary vasoreactivity testing (APVT) following basal RHC in some patients is an established tool evaluating the reversibility of hypertension in the pulmonary vasculature. Aim We sought to assess the most common indications, ...

Experience with exercise right heart catheterization in the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension: a retrospective study

BACKGROUND Data on exercise pulmonary hemodynamics in healthy people and patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) are rare. We analyzed exercise right heart catheterization (RHC) data in a symptomatic collective referred with suspected PH to characterize the differential response by diagnostic groups, to correlate resting with exercise hemodynamics, and to evaluate safety. METHODS This is a ...
