Brief description/objective

The relationship between chest radiograph (CXR) findings of pulmonary congestion and invasive hemodynamics and clinical outcomes in patients with cardiac diseases is unclear. We assessed the correlation between a CXR-based congestion score (RxCS) and the mean pulmonary artery wedge pressure (mPAWP) and the prognostic impact of RxCS and mPAWP in severe aortic stenosis (AS).
