Normalization of Four Different Types of Pulmonary Hypertension After Atrial Septal Defect Closure

Normalization of Four Different Types of Pulmonary Hypertension After Atrial Septal Defect Closure

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an established risk factor in patients with atrial septal defect (ASD), and its persistence after ASD closure is associated with increased mortality. Therefore, predictors for PH normalization after defect closure are needed. Multiple hemodynamic types of PH exist, but...
