IMPACT OF ADVERSE RIGHT VENTRICULAR REMODELING ON MORTALITY IN IDIOPATHIC PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION

Given that RV remodeling occurs in response to pulmonary hypertension, the prognostic value of the longitudinal change in RV volumes and mass is unclear. We hypothesized that RV remodeling may be associated with adverse outcomes in patients with IPAH. Thirty consecutive newly diagnosed IPAH
