Popis: Aims: Patients with heart failure (HF) are known to have a reduced pulmonary diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (D LCO ), but little is known about how lung function relates to central haemodynamics. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between haemodynamic variables and pulmonary diffusion capacity adjusted for alveolar volume in congestive HF patients and to analyse how predicted D LCO /V A affects mortality in relation to the haemodynamic status. Methods and results: We retrospectively studied right heart catheterization (RHC) and lung function data on 262 HF patients (mean age 51 ± 13 years) with a left ventricular ejection fraction LCO /V A , forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV 1 ), and haemodynamic parameters [pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), central venous pressure, cardiac index, mean pulmonary artery pressure, and mean arterial pressure] as well as other factors known to affect lung function in HF. FEV 1 was reduced to LCO/ V A was reduced in 63% of the population. D LCO /V A correlated positively with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure in both univariate and multivariate analyses for all included patients (P LCO /V A predicted mortality in multivariate models [hazard ratio 1.5 (1.1–2.1)] but not the combined endpoint of death, LVAD implantation, or HTX. There was no significant correlation between haemodynamics and predicted FVC or FEV 1 . Conclusions: Pulmonary diffusion capacity correlates positively with left ventricular fillings pressures, and reduced values predict increased mortality in patients with HF. This might be driven by increased lung capillary volume in patients with pulmonary congestion.
