Abstract-Pulmonary hypertension is associated with diverse cardiac, pulmonary, and systemic diseases in neonates, infants, and older children and contributes to significant morbidity and mortality. However, current approaches to caring for pediatric patients with pulmonary hypertension have been limited by the lack of consensus guidelines from experts in the field. In a joint effort from the American Heart Association and American Thoracic Society, a panel of experienced clinicians and clinician-scientists was assembled to review the current literature and to make recommendations on the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of pediatric pulmonary hypertension. This publication presents the results of extensive literature reviews, discussions, and formal scoring of recommendations for the care of children with pulmonary hypertension.

“…Interventricular septal thickness and movement were also studied in all pa tients. However, we tried to obtain a good picture of the right ventricular anterior wall (RVAW): all pa tients were submitted to a recording in a supine posi tion placing the transducer inferiorly and laterally to the xiphoid appendix [12], In 34 patients out of 42 we were able to visualize the thickness of RVAW (RVAWT), which was measured at the start of the Q wave. Right ventricular diameter could be visualized (and thus RVI could be calculated) in 29 patients out of 42.…”

“…In the last few years the échocar diographie method has been suggested as a noninvasive estimation of pulmonary artery pressure in COLD [4] and in other pathology [9,16,17]: Kasper et al [9] stud ied the diameter of right pulmonary ar tery, Silverman et al [16] studied the ratio of the right ventricular pre-ejection period to the right ventricular ejection time, and Boyd et al [4] studied the time interval be tween the closure of the tricuspid valve and the maximal opening of the pulmon ary valve. Nevertheless, Matsukubo et al [12], Prakash et al [13] and Louridas et al [Il] have shown that right ventricular hy pertrophy and dilatation may be recog nized by the subxiphoid and left sternal approach to the right ventricle, yet écho cardiographie studies of the right ventri cle, together with hemodynamics of the lesser circulation, have never been carried out in COLD.…”

42 patients with chronic obstructive lung disease underwent right heart hemodynamics (Swan-Ganz catheter) and M mode echocardiography. Echocardiographic study showed that right ventricular index (RVI) and right ventricular anterior wall thickness (RVAWT) were increased in most patients, while septal thickness and motion were nearly always normal. The finding of impaired RVI and normal RVAWT in several patients, while no one showed normal RVI and increased RVAWT, suggests that arterial pulmonary hypertension results in initial dilatation and only later in hypertrophy of the right ventricle. Echocardiographic parameters were well correlated with hemodynamic and pulmonary function parameters. The good correlations between echocardiographic and hemodynamic data suggest that echocardiography may be a useful technique in the noninvasive assessment of the effects of pulmonary hypertension on the right heart in COLD.

“…A espessura da parede VD é uma medida útil para a avaliação de hipertrofia de VD, geralmente como resultado de sobrecarga da PSVD. [16][17][18] Aumento da espessura do VD pode ser encontrado em pacientes com miocardiopatia hipertrófica e infiltrativa, assim como em pacientes com hipertrofia significativa do VE, mesmo na ausência de HP. 19 A espessura da parede livre do VD pode ser medida ao final da diástole pelo modo M ou pela ecocardiografia 2D a partir da janela subcostal, preferencialmente ao nível da ponta da cúspide anterior da valva tricúspide ou nas janelas paraesternais esquerdas.…”
