Abstract

Purpose: To find out the correlation between systolic pulmonary artery pressure on echocardiography and right heart catheterization. Subjects: 30 patients hospitalized for left heart failure with reduced EF at Vietnam Heart Institute, Bach Mai Hospital from August 2017 to October 2018. Results: average age 61.2 ± 15.5, average EF: 26.7 ± 5.8%. Mean systolic pulmonary artery pressure: 49.1 ± 14.7 mmHg. There is a close correlation between systolic pulmonary artery pressure on echocardiography at admission and on right heart catheterization, with r= 0.81, p= 0.00, linear regression equation: Y = -4.39 + 0.9*X1. There is a close correlation between systolic pulmonary artery pressure on echocardiography at discharge and on right heart catheterization with r= 0.88, p= 0.00, linear regression equation: Y = -2.32 + 1.09*X2. Conclusion: There is an increase in systolic pulmonary artery pressure in patients with left heart failure with reduced EF and there is a close correlation between systolic pulmonary artery pressure on echocardiography and on right heart catheterization
