Abstract
This study aimed to determine the prognostic value of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and associated pulmonary hypertension (pulmonary hypertension-HFpEF). Patients with pulmonary hypertension-HFpEF were recruited from the ASPIRE registry and underwent right heart catheterisation (RHC) and CMR. On RHC, the inclusion criteria was a mean pulmonary artery pressure (MPAP) ≥ 25 mmHg and pulmonary arterial wedge pressure > 15 mmHg and, on CMR, a left atrial volume > 41 ml/m 2 with left ventricular ejection fraction > 50%. Cox regression was performed to evaluate CMR against all-cause mortality. In this study, 116 patients with pulmonary hypertension-HFpEF were identified. Over a mean follow-up period of 3 ± 2 years, 61 patients with pulmonary hypertension-HFpEF died (53%). In univariate regression, 11 variables demonstrated association to mortality: indexed right ventricular (RV) volumes and stroke volume, right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF), indexed RV mass, septal angle, pulmonary artery systolic/diastolic area and its relative area change. In multivariate regression, only three variables were independently associated with mortality: RVEF (HR 0.64, P < 0.001), indexed RV mass (HR 1.46, P < 0.001) and IV septal angle (HR 1.48, P < 0.001). Our CMR model had 0.76 area under the curve (P < 0.001) to predict mortality. This study confirms that pulmonary hypertension in patients with HFpEF is associated with a poor prognosis and we observe that CMR can risk stratify these patients and predict all-cause mortality. When patients with HFpEF develop pulmonary hypertension, CMR measures that reflect right ventricular afterload and function predict all-cause mortality.
