IVC measurement for the noninvasive evaluation of central venous pressure
AbstractCentral venous pressure (CVP) is one of only a handful of variables that can be used to assess a patient ’s volume status to attempt to optimize stroke volume. The gold standard method for assessing CVP is though pulmonary artery catheterization, which is invasive and risks severe complications such as pneumothorax and cardiac conduction abnormalities. Current noninvasive methods for estimating CVP s uch as jugular venous pressure assessment are imperfect with wide inter-examiner variability. The inferior vena cava (IVC) is a highly compliant vessel that uniquely does not constrict in response to hypovolemia, mak...

Assessing Cardiac Recovery for Decommissioning of LVAD Support: Structure versus Function
Recovery of left ventricular (LV) function during LVAD support occurs in only 1-3% of patients. Assessment for recovery and LVAD removal is desirable given the risks of infection, stroke, and device malfunction. This case of a patient with an LVAD, with recovered LV systolic function but abnormal exercise hemodynamics, illustrates the potential utility of right heart catheterization studies for clinical decisions.

Case Report of High-Grade Atrioventricular Block and Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy
CONCLUSION: When AVB or other arrhythmias initiate a TTC, the patient can experience sudden cardiac death and decompensate quickly. Therefore, clinicians should understand this rare but fatal complication because these patients require pacemakers and beta blockers.PMID:35348088 | PMC:PMC8817916 | DOI:10.7812/TPP/21.006

Echocardiographic Biventricular Coupling Index to Predict Pre-Capillary Pulmonary Hypertension
In this study, the novel echocardiographic Biventricular Coupling Index (BCI), based on the ratio between Right Ventricular Stroke Work Index and left ventricular E/E ’ ratio, was tested for the discrimination of PH subtype using RHC as the comparator.
