RC time (resistance × compliance) is related to residual symptom after pulmonary endarterectomy in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension
Background: Right ventricular (RV) afterload is widely assessed by pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). However, RV afterload is underestimated because PVR does not account for the pulsatile load. The pulsatile load is often evaluated by pulmonary arterial compliance (PAC). The RC (resistance-compli...
