Reliability of Doppler echocardiography in the assessment of high pulmonary vascular resistance in patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension

BACKGROUND: The objective is to assess whether the squaring of tricuspid regurgitation velocity (TRV) gives an improved estimate of pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) or is equivalent to the ratio of TRV and time velocity integral of right ventricular outflow tract (TVI(RVOT)) (TRV/TVI(RVOT)) for a...
