Demographics and Outcomes of Patients Diagnosed With Pulmonary Hypertension With Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressures of 16-18 mmHg: Insights From REVEAL
Chest, 06/04/2012
Frost AE et al. – Patients with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) 16–18 mmHg who were diagnosed and treated for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) were older, heavier, and more likely to have comorbidities associated with left ventricular diastolic dysfunction at diagnosis than those with PCWP ≤15 mmHg. Five–year survival was similarly poor for all PCWP subgroups.
