The isobaric pulmonary arterial compliance in pulmonary hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension is associated with stiffening of pulmonary arteries which increases right ventricular pulsatile loading. High pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) in postcapillary pulmonary hypertension (Pc-PH) further decreases pulmonary arterial compliance (PAC) at a given pulmonary vascu...
