The prognostic significance of pulmonary arterial capacitance in pulmonary arterial hypertension: Single-center experience

Abstract

This study explores the prognostic utility of pulmonary arterial capacitance (PAC) in a diverse cohort of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) from a tertiary referral center and compares it with the prognostic utility of other hemodynamic parameters. PAC is a strong independent predictor of mortality in patients with PAH.
