Utilization of the flow ratio measured by echocardiography (FRecho) compared to the flow ratio by right heart catheterization (FRrhc) for detecting Eisenmenger syndrome in uncorrected acyanotic adult congenital heart disease (ACHD)

Utilization of the flow ratio measured by echocardiography (FRecho) compared to the flow ratio by right heart catheterization (FRrhc) for detecting Eisenmenger syndrome in uncorrected acyanotic adult congenital heart disease (ACHD)

Abstract Background The increasing number of adult congenital heart disease (ACHD) patients, especially in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), necessitates effective management methods. The Qp/Qs or flow ratio (FR) is crucial for this purpose because one of the indications for closure is a sig...
