Validating Left Ventricular Filling Pressure Measurements in Patients with Congestive Heart Failure: CardioMEMS ™ Pulmonary Arterial Diastolic Pressure versus Left Atrial Pressure Measurement by Transthoracic Echocardiography.

Conclusions: Our study illustrates a direct linear correlation between PAdP measured by CardioMEMS and simultaneous measurement of LV filling pressures derived by echocardiography. PMID: 30116638 [PubMed]
