ARDS is associated with poor clinical outcomes, with a pooled mortality rate of
approximately 40% despite best standards of care. Current therapeutic strategies are based …

The hemodynamic effects of mechanical ventilation can be grouped into three clinically
relevant concepts. First, since spontaneous ventilation is exercise. In patients increased …

Objective To quantify right ventriculo-arterial coupling in pulmonary hypertension by
combining standard right heart catheterisation (RHC) and cardiac magnetic resonance …

Background Echocardiographic surrogates of right ventricle–to–pulmonary artery (RV-PA)
coupling have been reported to be associated with outcomes in patients with secondary …

Background—Elevated resting pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) in patients with left
ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) purports a poor prognosis. However, PAP response …

Background: Patients with combined post-and precapillary pulmonary hypertension due to
left heart disease have a worse prognosis compared with isolated postcapillary. However, it …

Critically ill patients with the need for mechanical ventilation show complex interactions
between respiratory and cardiovascular physiology. These interactions are important as they …

BACKGROUND: The significance of reduced right ventricular (RV) deformation reported in
endurance athletes (EAs) is unclear, highlighting the ambiguities between physiologic RV …

Background Biventricular failure is associated with high in‐hospital mortality. Limited data
regarding the efficacy of biventricular Impella axial flow catheters (BiPella) support for …

Adaptation of right ventricular (RV) function to increased afterload—known as RV–arterial
coupling—is a key determinant of prognosis in pulmonary hypertension. However …
