Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) increases right ventricular (RV) workload and decreases myocardial oxygen reserve, eventually leading to poor cardiac output. This study created and assessed a novel model of RV work output based on RV hemodynamics and oxygen supply, allowing new insight into causal mechanisms of RV dysfunction.
