Popis: To identify echocardiographic factors that correlate with pulmonary hypertension (PH) in adults with ostium secundum atrial septal defect (ASD).Between November 2009 and November 2013, 92 adults with ASD were studied. All had clinical history and transthoracic echocardiogram.Thirty-nine percent of patients had severe PH defined as systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) of 70 mm Hg or more. The size of ASD (31.84±8.21 mm) and a right-sided tricuspid inflow E-wave to tissue Doppler e'-wave ratio6.2 correlated with severe PH with AUC of 0.704 (CI 95%=0.59 to 0.818, P.001) and 0.65 (CI 95%=0.531 to 0.773, P.014), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression showed that sPAP70 mm Hg was the variable that most precisely correlated with right ventricular (RV) dysfunction as evidenced by TAPSE17 mm and RV fractional shortening area (RVFSA)35%. Left ventricular (LV) diastolic function was also significantly reduced in the group with severe PH with mitral inflow E/A ratio of 0.73±0.23 vs 1.13±0.42 in the group without severe PH (sPAP70 mm Hg, (P=.001). The pulmonary (Qp) to systemic (Qs) cardiac output ratio (3.09±1.12) and right-sided tissue Doppler S9.5 cm/s most accurately predicted a Tei index0.55.Larger size of ASD using the QP/QS ratio and increased right-sided tricuspid E/e' ratio correlated with severe PH with a sPAP of 70 mm Hg or more. Patients with severe PH had more severe RV dysfunction as evaluated by TAPSE and RVFSA in comparison to those with PH70 mm Hg. LV diastolic function was also reduced in the severe PH group.
