Clinical value of echocardiography in evaluating hemodynamics and right ventricular function in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension after balloon pulmonary angioplasty
CONCLUSIONS: The findings show that a single BPA procedure significantly improves RV volume load and reduces the pulmonary blood pressure in CTEPH patients in the short-term. However, BPA does not improve RV systolic function 24 hours after the procedure. The results indicate that evaluation of RV structural and function with echocardiography is an effective approach for non-invasive monitoring of patient status after BPA.PMID:35693626 | PMC:PMC9186241 | DOI:10.21037/jtd-21-1536

How we do it: evaluation of dyspnea and exercise intolerance after acute pulmonary embolism
Chest. 2022 Jul 2:S0012-3692(22)01215-6. doi: 10.1016/j.chest.2022.06.036. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLong-term dyspnea and exercise intolerance are common clinical problems after acute PE. Unfortunately, no single test can distinguish among the range of potential pathological outcomes after PE. We illustrate a stepwise approach to post-PE evaluation that uses a hierarchical series of clinically validated diagnostic tests. The algorithm is represented by the acronym SEARCH, which stands for symptom screening, exercise testing, arterial perfusion, resting echocardiography, confirmatory chest imaging and (right) heart cat...

Adaptive versus maladaptive right ventricular remodelling
AbstractRight ventricular (RV) function and its adaptation to increased afterload [RV –pulmonary arterial (PA) coupling] are crucial in various types of pulmonary hypertension, determining symptomatology and outcome. In the course of disease progression and increasing afterload, the right ventricle undergoes adaptive remodelling to maintain right-sided cardiac output by increasing contractility. Exhaustion of compensatory RV remodelling (RV–PA uncoupling) finally leads to maladaptation and increase of cardiac volumes, resulting in heart failure. The gold-standard measurement of RV–PA coupling is the ratio of contract...

Adrenomedullin peptides and precursor levels in relation to haemodynamics and prognosis after heart transplantation
ConclusionsElevated plasma levels of ADM may be a marker of pressure/volume overload in HF patients with PH, as well as long-term prognosis after HT. In line with previous studies, our findings additionally confirm that ADM may be a marker of venous congestion in HF. Further studies are encouraged to establish a deeper understanding of the properties of ADM and its relationship with HF and PH, in order to potentially facilitate clinical management of HF and associated PH.

Effects of sotatercept on haemodynamics and right heart function: analysis of STELLAR trial
CONCLUSION: In pre-treated patients with PAH, sotatercept demonstrated substantial improvements in PA pressures, PA compliance, PA-RV coupling and right heart function.PMID:37696565 | DOI:10.1183/13993003.01107-2023
