Prospectively, we performed echocardiography with measurement of right ventricular dyssynchrony and pressure-volume loop catheterization in 27 pulmonary arterial hypertension patients. Afterload and diastolic function emerged as determinates of wall stress, which results in dyssynchrony.Pulmonary circulation2045894020925759https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC7235672biostudies-literatureRight ventricular dyssynchrony: from load-independent right ventricular function to wall stress in severe pulmonary arterial hypertension.PMC7235672Tello KRichter MJHarth SSeeger WGall HBadagliacca RGhofrani HAVanderpool RWan JDalmer ANaeije R55falseRight ventricular dyssynchrony: from load-independent right ventricular function to wall stress in severe pulmonary arterial hypertension.Right ventricular (RV) dyssynchrony has been related to outcome in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
