DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2018.08.844
Abstract: At the present time, criteria for diagnosis of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction are non-specific. A measurement of left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP) > 24mmHg or a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) > 24 mmHg is… read more here.

Abstract: Pulmonary artery diastolic pressure (PADP) correlates closely with pulmonary wedge pressure (PAWP); therefore, we sought to evaluate whether an algorithm based on PADP assessment by the Doppler pulmonary regurgitation (PR) end‐diastolic gradient (PRG) may aid… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND Premature ventricular complex (PVC) is seen in most individuals. It has been shown that the kinetics-tracking index or Kawasaki-Tanaka index (KT index) strongly predicts pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) by noninvasively. KT index was… read more here.
