Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of right ventricular (RV) to pulmonary artery (PA) coupling in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).
- Significant improvements in RV-PA coupling were observed shortly after TAVI, primarily due to a decrease in pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP).
- Impaired RV-PA coupling was linked to lower survival rates in patients, with factors like left atrial strain and RV diameter being significant predictors of RV-PA coupling impairment.
