Using echocardiography, researchers were able to examine the association between short and longterm mortality with increasing pulmonary pressures Researchers evaluated eRVSP levels for 74,405 men and ,437 women who were, on average, 656 years of ageThe CE was significantly more frequent in 19 (92%) patients with TRPG/TAPSE >45 than in 1 (908%) with TRPG/TAPSE ≤45 (4 (211%) vs 4 (21%), P=) Among normotensive APE A value of > 130 ms is normal, while < 100 ms is highly suggestive of pulmonary hypertension Mean pulmonary pressure is calculated by the formula mPAP = 90 − (062*AT RVOT) For example, if the AT RVOT is 80 ms, the mPAP = 90 −(062*80), that is 404 mmHg (normal < 25 mmHg)
