Abstract
- Background: Volume overload is often associated with clinical deterioration in precapillary pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, thorough assessment of volume overload is complex and therefore not routinely performed. We examined whether estimated plasma volume status (ePVS) is associated with central venous congestion and prognosis in patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) or chronic thromboembolic PH (CTEPH). Methods: We included all patients with incident IPAH or CTEPH enrolled in the Giessen PH Registry between January 2010 and January 2021. Plasma volume status was estimated using the Strauss formula. Results: In total, 381 patients were analyzed. Patients with high ePVS (≥4.7 vs.
