Right ventricular myocardial velocities and timing estimate pulmonary artery systolic pressure
International Journal of Cardiology, 10/13/09
Lindqvist P et al. – RV–RA peak pressure drop is the most accurate non–invasive method for assessing PASP. Combining myocardial IVCV and IVRT can be used accurately in estimating PASP being more feasible than RV–RA drop. Such additional measurement might be important in patients follow–up when RV–RA gradient is difficult to obtain.
