Table 3a. Summarized ROC data for the prediction of pulmonary hypertension.

sPAPRHC, systolic pulmonary artery pressure obtained by right heart catheterization; dPAPRHC, diastolic pulmonary artery pressure obtained by right heart catheterization; mPAPRHC, mean pulmonary artery pressure obtained by right heart catheterization; RAPECHO, right atrial pressure estimated by echocardiogram; TR, tricuspid regurgitation gradient; PR, pulmonic regurgitation gradient; Se, sensitivity; Sp, specificity; AUC, area under the curve; CI, confidence interval.

Cut-off (mmHg) Se/Sp AUC 95% CI
Peak TR to predict sPAPRHC >30mmHg 17.35 100/100 1.0 1.0–1.0
Peak TR + RAPECHO to predict sPAPRHC >30mmHg 24.85 100/100 1.0 1.0–1.0
Peak PR + RAPECHO to predict mPAPRHC >25mmHg 14.6 100/100 1.0 1.0–1.0
End PR + RAPECHO to predict dPAPRHC >10mmHg 7.3 84.6/87.5 0.92 0.81–1.0
