New Formula for Predicting Mean Pulmonary Artery Pressure Using Systolic Pulmonary Artery Pressure

Mean pulmonary artery pressure (MPAP) and systolic pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP) are used interchangeably to define pulmonary hypertension (PH). We tested the hypothesis that the measurement of MPAP and SPAP is redundant in resting humans over a wide pressure range. Prospective, observational stu...
