Use of Noninvasive Gas Exchange to Track pulmonary Vascular Responses to exercise in Heart Failure

We determined whether a non-invasive gas exchange based estimate of pulmonary vascular (PV) capacitance [PV CAP = stroke volume (SV) x pulmonary arterial pressure (Ppa)] (GX CAP ) tracked the PV response to exercise in heart-failure (HF) patients. Pulmonary wedge pressure (Ppw), Ppa, PV resistance (...
