Relationship between hemodynamic response and cardiovascular reserve. A. Correlation between delta elastic modulus (ΔEM) and delta mean pulmonary artery pressure (ΔmPAP); B. correlation between ΔEM and delta cardiac output (ΔCO); C. correlation between delta myocardial isovolumic acceleration (ΔIVA) and ΔmPAP; D. correlation between ΔIVA and ΔCO in PAH patients.
