Description

Raissa Rafidhinar and co-authors look for catheter-based warning signs in rheumatic heart disease, reporting in 2026. Their patients showed a mismatch on ultrasound between the right heart chamber and its artery, a pattern called RV-PA uncoupling. Which pressure measures predict death or other bad outcomes in that group was unclear.

The single-centre review covered 56 adults who had a first right heart catheter test for risk grading before treatment. Fourteen patients, 25 percent, died during the hospital-record follow-up, and 23 had the combined bad outcome. Higher pulmonary vascular resistance, meaning tighter lung vessels, stayed linked to worse outcomes after adjustment. The authors use the results to sharpen risk grading before intervention.
