Elevated pulmonary artery pressure. An independent predictor of mortality.
Analyses in this study were based on hemodynamic and angiographic data obtained in a cohort of 1,371 predominantly black patients during right and left heart catheterization. All patients were followed up prospectively for a mean of 117 weeks, and 103 fatal events were recorded. In Cox survival analysis, three variables were found to be independently related to survival: pulmonary artery mean p...

متن کاملMidterm results of sildenafil therapy in two complex patients with elevated pulmonary artery pressure after cavopulmonary connection
Two cases are presented. In the first patient (8-year-old boy) after Glenn operation without closure of pulmonary outflow from the common ventricle (SV-PA) despite transcatheter SV-PA closure increased mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) (22 mm Hg) remained. After 6 months of sildenafil therapy he was catheterized again. His mPAP dropped to 10 mm Hg and a Fontan operation was subsequently per...
متن کاملBidirectional cavopulmonary connection without additional pulmonary blood flow as an ideal staging for functional univentricular hearts.
OBJECTIVE Our institutional policy differs from others substantially, as we never leave any additional blood flow at the time of performing bidirectional cavopulmonary connection (BCPC). The aim was to evaluate the influence of this strategy on hemodynamics and pulmonary artery development. METHODS Between 2001 and 2006 a total of 124 patients had completion to a total cavopulmonary connectio...
متن کاملInfluence of elevated pulmonary vascular resistance on the relationship between central venous pressure and pulmonary artery occluded pressure following cardiopulmonary bypass.
This study has demonstrated that CVP measurement is an unreliable index of left ventricular filling pressure in unselected patients undergoing A-C bypass procedures. The influence of altered PVR on the disparity between right and left ventricular filling pressures is not of prime importance. The inconsistent relationship between CVP and PAo is primarily a result of ventricular dysfunction and n...
