Predictors and prognosis of right ventricular function in pulmonary hypertension due to heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

Aims Failure of right ventricular (RV) function worsens outcome in pulmonary hypertension (PH). The adaptation of RV contractility to afterload, the RV‐pulmonary artery (PA) coupling, is defined by the ratio of RV end‐systolic to PA elastances (Ees/Ea). Using pressure–volume loop (PV‐L) technique we...

The analysis revealed that 0.68 is an optimal Ees/Ea cut‐off (area under the curve: 0.697, P < 0.001) predictive for overall survival (median follow up = 4.7 years, Ees/Ea ≥ 0.68 vs. <0.68, log‐rank 8.9, P = 0.003). In patients with PH (n = 76, 68%) multivariate Cox regression demonstrated the independent prognostic value of RV‐Ees/Ea in PH patients (hazard ratio 0.2, P < 0.038). Patients without PH (n = 36, 32%) and those with PH but RV‐Ees/Ea ≥ 0.68 showed comparable RV‐Ees/Ea ratios (0.88 vs. 0.9, P = 0.39), RV size/function, and survival. In contrast, secondary PH with RV‐PA coupling ratio Ees/Ea < 0.68 corresponded extremely close to cut‐off values that define RV dilatation/remodelling (RV end‐diastolic volume >160 mL, RV‐mass/volume‐ratio ≤0.37 g/mL) and dysfunction (right ventricular ejection fraction <38%, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion <16 mm, fractional area change <42%, and stroke‐volume/end‐systolic volume ratio <0.59) and is associated with a dramatically increased short and medium‐term all‐cause mortality. Independent predictors of prognostically unfavourable RV‐PA coupling (Ees/Ea < 0.68) in secondary PH were a pre‐existent dilated RV [end‐diastolic volume >171 mL, odds ratio (OR) 0.96, P = 0.021], high pulsatile load (PA compliance <2.3 mL/mmHg, OR 8.6, P = 0.003), and advanced systolic left heart failure (left ventricular ejection fraction <30%, OR 1.23, P = 0.028).
