Heritable Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension With Elevated Pulmonary Wedge Pressure [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2012
A 50-year-old man, who is an active smoker without a previous medical history, was admitted for recent dyspnea (New York Heart Association functional class III) and an episode of exertional syncope. His familial history included the sudden death of his mother at the age of 50.

Estimating Mean Pulmonary Wedge Pressure in Patients With Chronic Atrial Fibrillation From Transthoracic Doppler Indexes of Mitral and Pulmonary Venous Flow Velocity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 1997
Objectives. We sought to obtain a noninvasive estimation of mean pulmonary wedge pressure (MPWP) in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation (AF).Background. It has previously been demonstrated that MPWP can be reliably estimated from Doppler indexes of

Decoupling Between Diastolic Pulmonary Artery and Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressures Is Associated With Right Ventricular Dysfunction and Hemocompatibility‐Related Adverse Events in Patients With Left Ventricular Assist Devices

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Decoupling between diastolic pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure is an index of pulmonary vascular damage. This study assessed the impact of decoupling on right heart function and hemocompatibility‐related adverse ...

Simultaneous Measurement of Lung Diffusing Capacity and Pulmonary Hemodynamics Reveals Exertional Alveolar‐Capillary Dysfunction in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Hemodynamic perturbations in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) may alter the distribution of blood in the lungs, impair gas transfer from the alveoli into the pulmonary capillaries, and reduce lung diffusing capacity.

Negative-pressure pulmonary edema presented with concomitant spontaneous pneumomediastinum: Moore meets Macklin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Negative-pressure pulmonary edema is an unusual complication mainly associated with general anesthesia. It is caused by excessive negative intrathoracic pressure following a deep inspiration against an acute airway obstruction.
