Right ventricular dyssynchrony in patients with pulmonary hypertension is associated with disease severity and functional class

BACKGROUND: Abnormalities in right ventricular function are known to occur in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. OBJECTIVE: Test the hypothesis that chronic elevation in pulmonary artery systolic pressure delays mechanical activation of the right ventricle, termed dyssynchrony, and is as...
