Preserved right ventricular function but increased right atrial contractile demand in altitude-induced pulmonary hypertension

PURPOSE: Ascent to high altitude increases right ventricular (RV) afterload and decreases myocardial energy supply. This study evaluates physiologic variables and comprehensive echocardiographic indices of RV and right atrial (RA) function following rapid ascent to high altitude. METHODS: Fifty heal...
