Right Ventricular to Pulmonary Artery Uncoupling Is Associated With Impaired Exercise Capacity in Patients With Transthyretin Cardiac Amyloidosis
Right ventricular-pulmonary artery coupling estimated by the TAPSE/PASP ratio determines exercise capacity in ATTR-CA patients. This highlights the importance of early therapeutic intervention against underappreciated right ventricular dysfunction associated with ATTR-CA.
