“…An important and higher proportion than that reported presented chest pain in our population 8,18 . The time from the onset of symptoms to diagnosis is similar to that reported (12 months), not being the case for the times from diagnosis to surgery (78 days vs. 12 months) and from the onset of symptoms to the surgical procedure (24 months vs. 17 months) 8,15,16 , surely something related to the Colombian health-care system. The stay in the intensive care unit was shorter than that reported (6 vs. 14) with similar days of mechanical ventilation (2 on average) 8,15 .…”

“…The majority of the patients had marked symptoms, 79% being in functional Class III and IV (Table 1). The initial echocardiogram 6 [3-13] 20 [14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] showed right ventricular dilation in 63%, with a median pulmonary artery pressure of 79 mmHg, tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) of 16, and a quarter of the population had moderate-to-severe tricuspid regurgitation (Table 1 supplementary appendix). The mean pressure of the pulmonary artery was 50 mmHg in the right catheterization, with PVR of 640 dyn.s.cm −5 and systemic resistance of 1600 dyn.s.cm −5 .…”

“…[4][5][6] Predictors of in-hospital mortality in the German NIS Regarding predictors of mortality, the UK-PH registry demonstrated in 239 CTEPH patients that a preoperative pulmonary resistance above 1000 dyneÁsÁcm À5 was associated with increased perioperative mortality, whereas higher cardiac index and longer six-minute walk distance were associated with a better perioperative survival. 16 Similarly, an elevated PVR as well as NYHA class IV were identified as a predictor of 30-day mortality in 214 19 and 106 20 CTEPH patients who underwent PEA in previous studies. In the present study, NYHA class III/IV was also associated with increased in-hospital mortality in an univariate, but not in a multivariate logistic regression model.…”

“…The most life-threatening complication of PTE is acute pulmonary hemorrhage, 1 , 2 and incidence is reported as high as 4%. 1 It occurs when endarterectomy plane goes deep enough to perforate the PA, resulting in bleeding into surrounding airways. 2 , 3 At our institution, we have observed 2 such cases in our first 246 PTEs (0.8%).…”
