Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Comparibility of Ees (endsystolic elastance, which describes the right ventricular contractility) derived from conductance catheter, cMRI (cardiac magnetic resonance tomography) and 4D echocardiography

    right ventricular contractility can be obtained via different methods, our aim is to compare the different methods. Ees is the endsystolic elastance which describes the contractility of the right ventricle

    12 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • dp/dt max and min from Pressure-Wire vs. Conductance Katheter

    12 weeks

  • Comparibility of volumetry assessed via magnetic resonance tomography (MRI) and 4D echocardiography (ECHO)

    12 weeks

  • Comparibility of pressures measured via pressure wire and conductance catheter

    12 weeks

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 85 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes

You may qualify if:

  • PH Nizza group 1 and patients without pulmonary hypertension after having the right heart catheter on clinical grounds

You may not qualify if:

  • therapy with positive inotropic drugs (dobutamin etc.)
  • missing informed consent
  • pregnancy or lactation
