What ’ s the relationship between JVP and PCWP/LVEDP?

This study elegantly shows a correlation (or lack of it) in different subsets of heart failure. It tells us very clearly If JVP(RAP) is not correlating or disproportionate to PCWP, it implies RV dysfunction. 2. This paper suggests a really useful scheme to classify heart failure as concordant and discordant with reference to right and left heart. It throws some interesting facts. I guess it will help us guide diuretic management and prognosticate chronic heart failure.
