Significant deviation between reported wedge pressure and diastolic pulmonary arterial pressure found during right heart catheterization in patients undergoing cardiac transplant evaluation
Among patients referred for heart transplant evaluation, a correlation between reported diastolic pulmonary pressure and wedge pressure is only modest suggesting a significant error in the reporting or measuring right-sided pressures during right heart catheterization warranting further investigation to reduce errors.
