Right-to-left shunt with hypoxemia in pulmonary hypertension

BACKGROUND: Hypoxemia is common in pulmonary hypertension (PH) and may be partly related to ventilation/perfusion mismatch, low diffusion capacity, low cardiac output, and/or right-to-left (RL) shunting. METHODS: To determine whether true RL shunting causing hypoxemia is caused by intracardiac shunt...
