https://doi.org/10.38109/2225-1685-2016-4-8-17

Abstract

SUMMERY The study included 40 patients with CTEPH of different severity. All patients underwent 2D and 3D echocardiography to assess structure and function of right and left heart chambers, ventricular interaction, and ventricular-vascular coupling. The study showed that patients with CTEPH had right and left ventricle remodeling with systolic and diastolic dysfunction. We also observed impairment of right and left ventricular-vascular coupling. Key words: CTEPH, echocardiography, heart remodeling, ventricular interaction, ventricular-vascular coupling.
