DOI: 10.1016/s0735-1097(20)33039-4
Abstract: Acute right ventricular (RV) failure can be precipitated by an acute pressure overload resulting from worsening of previously stable pulmonary artery (PA) pressures. This usually manifests as elevated jugular venous pressure, ascites, and peripheral edema.… read more here.
