Key result
Biventricular impairment (LVEF <50% and RVEF <40%) was associated with a significantly increased risk of mortality in patients with Eisenmenger syndrome (HR 8.0; 95% CI 2.5-25.1; P=0.0004).

CMR may support noninvasive risk stratification in ES; leaves open incremental value over clinical markers in prospective validation.

Jensen et al. (2015) conducted a cohort in Eisenmenger syndrome (n=48). Biventricular impairment (LVEF <50% and RVEF <40%) vs. Preserved biventricular function was evaluated on Mortality (HR 8.0, 95% CI 2.5-25.1, p=0.0004). Biventricular impairment (LVEF <50% and RVEF <40%) was associated with a significantly increased risk of mortality in patients with Eisenmenger syndrome (HR 8.0; 95% CI 2.5-25.1; P=0.0004).
