Objective This study assessed the long-term effects of triple therapy with prostanoids on patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension associated with congenital heart disease (PAH-CHD), as there is limited information on the safety and efficacy of this treatment approach.

BackgroundPulmonary hypertension (PH) is highly prevalent in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), and it is a strong predictor of adverse outcomes. Both resting/stress TAPSE/PASP and TAS’/PASP were correlated with rest/exercise pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and mean pulmonary artery pressure.

The level of hemoglobin (Hb) had a weak negative linear correlation with NT-pro-BNP (log-transform, r = 0.30, P < 0.0001) and a positively correlation with the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE)/pulmonary arterial systolic pressure (PASP) ratio (r = 0.44, P < 0.0001).

Both atria develop from a combination of the primitive atrium, sinus venous, and pulmonary veins.It However, underlying lesions such as hypertension, mitral valve disease, COPD, ASD, and TR greatly influence the degree of atrial enlargement. But, we rarely dispute it , & ask which atrium dilates more in AF ? Let us see few factors.

And that will be the approximate level of the tricuspid valve, the reference point for measuring right atrial pressure. In right atrial tracing, this occurs at the time of right ventricular contraction, with bulging upwards of the tricuspid valve. The Y descent is shallow in tricuspid stenosis, and absent in cardiac tamponade.

This suggests that there is pulmonary hypertension and thus possibly RVH. Severe tricuspid regurgitation. --The The estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure is 31 mmHg + RA pressure. That condition is tricuspid stenosis, which is rare. There is, however, a very peaked P wave in lead II (a "peaked P pulmonale").

Bernoulli equation (P=4V 2 ) gives the gradient of tricuspid regurgitation flow, which corresponds to the pressure difference between right ventricle and right atrium in systole. The early diastolic pulmonary regurgitation (PR) gradient (peak PR gradient) will give an estimate of mean pulmonary artery pressure.
