A review of wave mechanics in the pulmonary artery with an emphasis on wave intensity analysis

Mean pulmonary arterial pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) remain the most common haemodynamic measures to evaluate the severity and prognosis of pulmonary hypertension. However, PVR only captures the non‐oscillatory component of the right ventricular hydraulic load and neglects the dy...
