Super proud of this multicenter effort describing right ventricular pressure-volume analysis
Check it out to learn more about how to perform RV PV analysis, interpret the loops, and use them clinically

2....We begin the review with breaking down the right ventricular pressure volume loop. Learn how the PV diagram depicts systolic and diastolic function, as well as ventricular-vascular interactions/coupling. 
3....we then show you how to perform pressure volume analysis with a conductance catheter
Exciting findings exploring different cardiac output states in patients undergoing #TTVR, roping together the role of the liver, kidneys, splanchnic circulation. We were able to gain more insights in this intriguing pathophysiology: bit.ly/3iFlxMZ -explainer thread below
1/5 By analyzing n=132 patients who underwent #TTVR in severe #TR, we assessed Cardiac Output states, hemodynamics, liver and kidney function to understand which mechanisms are triggered and sustained by TR, but also to observe changes made in these organ systems after treatment.
2/5 Tricuspid regurgitation-related backward failure increases central venous pressures, causes liver congestion and dysfunction with portal hypertension and reduced washout of vasoactive substances.
