The lowest mortality rates are achieved in individuals with a pulmonary artery systolic pressure of less than 40 mmHg.

An echocardiogram can estimate pulmonary artery pressures and check the function of the heart's right and left ventricles.

The brain's response to this urgent signal for reduction in artery pressure would be to slow down radically the heart and when that failed, her heart stopped.

Measuring pulmonary artery pressure allows the clinician to give enough fluids to prevent shock without exacerbating edema.

Pulmonary artery pressure increases in an effort to oxygenate more blood.

The pulmonary artery pressure was raised at 99-108/20-25 mm Hg systolic/diastolic.

Eligibility for transplantation is generally related to mean pulmonary artery pressure (PAP).

Recent studies report up to 40% mortality at 22 months after detection of elevated pulmonary artery pressures in sickle cell patients.

The technique measures blood flow velocity to deduce pulmonary artery pressure.

Mean pulmonary artery pressure was measured by planimetry as the mean of four measurements performed at end-expiration.
