and their relation to concurrent aging changes. (P < 0.001) in the combined group (0.62 ± 0.18 cm), the right ventricular (RV) pressure overload group (0.60 ± 0.13 cm) and the RV volume overload group (0.53 ± 0.11 cm). Thirty-two patients underwent diagnostic right heart catheterization which revealed a good correlation between the RVWT measured echocardiographically and the right ventricular peak systolic pressure (r = 0.84).Subxiphoid echocardiography was considered to be useful in diagnosing right ventricular hypertrophy in adults.size of the right ventricle, the value of which increases in patients with atrial septal defect or tricuspid insufficiency.
