Five-year Outcomes of Pulmonary Hypertension With and Without Elevated Left Atrial Pressure in Patients Evaluated for Kidney Transplantation

Conclusions. The mortality risk associated with PH among patients with advanced chronic kidney disease appears to differ by etiology. Patients with PH in the absence of eLAP are at high risk of death and in need of focused attention. Future research efforts should investigate potential strategies to improve outcomes for these patients.
