摘要
Aim. To compare cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters with known prognosis determinants in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH).Material and methods. This prospective single-center study included 60 patients with PH aged 21-72 years. Cardiac MRI, right heart catheterization, echocardiography, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and 6-minute walk test (6MWT) were assessed at baseline.Results. Significant correlations between invasive hemodynamic parameters, NTproBNP and cardiac MRI parameters were confirmed. There were no significant correlations between the right ventricular (RV) contractility, RV volume and 6MWT distance, the functional class of PH. Cardiac MRI values allowed us to reliably separate patients at low risk from those at intermediate and high risk according to the 2015 ESC/ERS score. According to multivariate regression analysis, the right ventricular end systolic volume index >54 ml/m2 (hazard ratio, 0,2; 95% confidence interval, 0,05-0,9; p=0,004) and class 3-4 PH (hazard ratio, 0,2; 95% confidence interval, 0,07-0,8; p=0,026) remained independent predictors of mortality.Conclusion. The use of cardiac MRI in low-risk patients can significantly improve the early detection of right ventricular myocardial dysfunction and contribute to the timely optimization of PH-specific therapy. During monitoring patients with PH, cardiac MRI has the potential to reduce the need for repeated invasive investigations.
