A Study Of Clinical Implications Of Pulmonary Vascular Disease In Valvular Heart Disease

Purpose

The purpose of this study is to characterize pulmonary hemodynamic profiles, with a focus on PVR subtypes, in patients with left-sided valvular heart disease undergoing aortic or mitral valve intervention, and to identify patterns predicting reversibility of TR and RV dysfunction.

Conditions

  • Pulmonary Vascular Disease
  • Valvular Heart Disease
