Hemodynamic Definitions of Pulmonary Hypertension Phenotypes in Patients with Left Heart Disease
| PH-LHD Phenotype | Hemodynamic Criteria |
|---|---|
| Isolated post-capillary PH | mPAP ≥20 mmHg PAWP >15 mmHg PVR <3 WU |
| Combined pre- and post-capillary PH | mPAP ≥20 mmHg PAWP >15 mmHg PVR ≥3 WU |
PH = pulmonary hypertension; LHD = left heart disease; mPAP = mean pulmonary artery pressure; PAWP = pulmonary artery wedge pressure; PVR = pulmonary vascular resistance.
