Key result
Simultaneous pressure recordings from the pulmonary artery, left atrium, and left ventricle demonstrated normal left atrioventricular diastolic pressure congruence at rest.
Why the study?
What are the relations between pressure in the pulmonary artery, left atrium, and left ventricle at end diastole in patients undergoing diagnostic heart catheterization?
Population
158 patients who have undergone diagnostic heart catheterization at rest (17 considered normal)
Design
Cross-sectional

Normal resting LA-LV pressure congruence supports LVEDP estimation in cath; leaves open behavior in disease or stress.
Observational (n=158)
What are the relations between pressure in the pulmonary artery, left atrium, and left ventricle at end diastole in patients undergoing diagnostic heart catheterization?
Simultaneous pressure recordings during diagnostic heart catheterization demonstrate normal left atrioventricular diastolic pressure congruence at rest.
S. Å. Forsberg (1971) conducted an observational in Undergoing diagnostic heart catheterization (n=158). Simultaneous pressure recording from pulmonary artery, left atrium, and left ventricle was evaluated on Left atrioventricular diastolic pressure congruence. Simultaneous pressure recordings from the pulmonary artery, left atrium, and left ventricle demonstrated normal left atrioventricular diastolic pressure congruence at rest.
