Impact of right ventricular-pulmonary arterial coupling on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation
Abstract
Aims
The interplay between pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right ventricular (RV) function is reflected in an index of RV function to pulmonary artery (PA) systolic pressure (PASP). The present study aimed to assess the importance of RV-PA coupling on clinical outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
