This study reveals that patients with PH have worse clinical outcomes, in terms of hospitalization for heart failure (HF) and the composite endpoint of HF hospitalization and death at 1‐year follow‐up, compared with patients without PH. In particular, the hemodynamic subgroup of combined post‐ and pre‐capillary PH is associated with worse clinical ...

This pilot physiological study, involving 20 patients with severe aortic stenosis, shows that transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) induces rapid changes in both macrocirculatory parameters, reflecting the release of chronic obstruction. We observed improved tissue perfusion by postoperative Day 1, independent of macrocirculatory parameters ...
