A simplified method for estimating pulmonary venous and arterial pressures utilizing a step-by-step approach to the assessment of post-capillary and pre-capillary components is presented.
The correlation with cardiac catheterization values is remarkably good.
Pulmonary disease and increased total pulmonary blood flow are the major sources of inaccurate estimations.
