Abstract:
Haemodynamic monitoring is a significant component in the management of critically-ill patients. Flow-directed pulmonary artery catheters (PAC) are a simple and rapid technique for measuring several continuous or intermittent circulatory variables. The PAC is helpful in diagnosis, guidance of therapy, and monitoring therapeutic interventions in various clinical conditions, including myocardial infarction and its complications, non-cardiogenic pulmonary oedema and severely ill patients.The catheter is inserted through a large vein. The PAC is advanced, after ballooninflation with 1.5 mL of air, through the right ventricle across the pulmonary valve and into the pulmonary artery (PA). Finally, the catheter is advanced to the ‘wedge’ position. The pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) is identified by a decrease in pressure combined with a characteristic change in the waveform. The balloon should then be deflated and the PA tracing should reappear. Direct measurements include central venous pressure, pulmonary artery pressure, and PAWP, which during diastole represents the left ventricular end-diastolic pressure and reflects left ventricular preload. Cardiac output can be measured by thermodilution technique. Other haemodynamic variables can be derived from these measurements. Absolute contraindications are rare. Relative contraindications include coagulopathy and conditions that increase the risk of arrhythmias.

Abstract:
The function of the RV is to generate pressure to facilitate blood flow against the resistive forces of the pulmonary vasculature. RV function is particularly influenced by loading conditions. There are many causes of RV dysfunction and this chapter describes them. Most RV pathologies involve a degree of both pressure and volume overload. This chapter also examines the aetiology of RV volume overload along with specific echocardiographic findings. It explains the aetiology of RV pressure overload and how to measure RV pressures using the Bernoulli equation and alternative measures. Echocardiographic findings in relation to acute pulmonary embolism and exercise testing for pulmonary hypertension are also described in detail.

Pediatric pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by a pathologically elevated pulmonary artery pressure in children. The etiology of PAH is multifactorial, and while its prognosis is closely related to the reversibility of the underlying disease process, much progress has recently been made in its diagnosis and treatment, significantly decreasing the associated morbidity and mortality.

Abstract:
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a haemodynamic and pathophysiological condition defined as mean pulmonary artery pressure ≥25 mm Hg at rest, assessed by right-heart catheterization (8–20 mm Hg is considered normal). A pulmonary capillary wedge pressure measurement of >15 mm Hg indicates a significant pulmonary venous component. PH is associated with a variety of causes. The current PH classification is helpful in understanding the different etiological, pathological, and treatment approaches.

Abstract:
With the emergence of high-resolution computed tomography angiography, the number of transcatheter pulmonary arteriograms being performed has steeply declined. For this reason, many interventional departments no longer stock dedicated pulmonary artery catheters such as the pre-shaped 7 Fr Grollman catheter for a femoral vein approach. Interventionalists are therefore required to improvise with catheters that are available on hand. Transcatheter pulmonary arteriography may be indicated when dedicated pulmonary artery catheters are not available for use. In this chapter, a step-by-step approach is described and accompanied by illustrations demonstrating how a common diagnostic catheter, the 5 Fr Omniflush catheter, can be used to perform pulmonary arteriography.

Abstract:
In fibromuscular disease (FMD), renal artery occlusion seems to be rare. Balloon angioplasty appears moderately successful in the medium term in controlling hypertension, at least in younger patients. In more complicated circumstances, medical therapy may be preferred. Similar approaches have been used in Takayasu disease but with less information about lasting outcomes.In atherosclerotic renal disease, the risk of renal artery occlusion and loss of renal function seems higher, but so are the complications of invasive management. Randomized clinical studies have not shown better blood pressure control or renal outcomes between medical therapy and percutaneous revascularization. As a consequence, modern management of atherosclerotic renovascular disease is primarily pharmacological, with interventional techniques reserved for selected presentations such as rapidly declining therapy, acute occlusion, or characteristic ‘flash’ pulmonary oedema.Whilst this approach is widely accepted, long-term outcome data are scant and there is ongoing research interest into specific disease phenotypes, refined interventional techniques, and novel treatment strategies aimed at preserving the renal microcirculation.

Abstract:
Right-sided heart valves are complex anatomical structures. Studies describing the morphological and functional assessment of both valves are lacking. Most echocardiographic modalities provide a qualitative rather than quantitative approach.Echocardiography has a central role in the assessment of tricuspid regurgitation through estimation of severity, understanding the mechanism, assessment of pulmonary artery pressure, evaluation of right ventricular function, guidance towards surgery versus medical therapy, and assessment of valve competence after surgery.Transoesophageal echocardiography is an accurate method providing a qualitative assessment of right-sided heart valves. However, the lack of good validation makes it difficult to recommend its use for a quantitative approach. Hopefully, the future will provide refinements in instrumentation and techniques leading to increased accuracy in reporting and cost-effectiveness in making clinical decisions.

Abstract:
Haemodynamic instability in acute cardiac care may be related to various mechanisms, including hypovolaemia and heart and/or vascular dysfunction. Although acute heart failure patients are often admitted for dyspnoea, many mechanisms can be involved, including left ventricular diastolic and/or systolic dysfunction and/or right ventricular dysfunction. Many epidemiological studies show that clinical signs at admission, morbidity, and mortality differ between the main scenarios of acute heart failure: left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, left ventricular systolic dysfunction, right ventricular dysfunction, and cardiogenic shock. Although echocardiography often helps to assess the mechanism of cardiac dysfunction, it cannot be considered as a monitoring tool. In some cases (in particular, in cases of refractory shock secondary to both vascular and heart dysfunction or in cases of refractory haemodynamic instability associated with severe hypoxaemia), pulmonary artery catheter can help to assess and monitor cardiovascular status and to evaluate response to treatments. Last, macro- and microvascular dysfunctions are also important determinants of haemodynamic instability.

Abstract:
Right ventricular (RV) performance plays an important role in the morbidity and mortality of patients with left ventricular dysfunction, congenital heart disease, and pulmonary hypertension. Assessment of RV size, function, and haemodynamics has been challenging because of its complex geometry. Conventional two-dimensional echocardiography is the modality of choice for assessment of RV function in clinical practice. Recent developments in echocardiography have provided several new techniques for assessment of RV dimensions and function, include tissue Doppler imaging, speckle-tracking imaging, and volumetric three-dimensional imaging. However, specific training, expensive dedicated equipment, and extensive clinical validation are still required. Doppler methods interrogating tricuspid inflow and pulmonary artery flow velocities, which are influenced by changes in pre- and afterload conditions, may not provide robust prognostic information for clinical decision-making. This chapter addresses the role of the various echocardiographic modalities used to assess the RV and pulmonary circulation. Special emphasis has been placed on technical considerations, limitations, and pitfalls of image acquisition and analysis.

Abstract:
Coronary anomalies occur in less than 1% of the general population and their clinical presentation can range anywhere from a benign incidental finding to the cause of sudden cardiac death. Since congenital coronary arteries anomalies are often considered as the first cause of cardiac death in young athletes in Europe, careful attention has to be paid in this specific subpopulation in case of suggestive symptoms. Although focused expert echocardiography is the first-line imaging tool, coronary computed tomography or radiation-free magnetic resonance imaging are recommended for more definitive definition of the coronary course in persons suspected of having coronary artery anomalies. Most coronary anomalies belong to the group of anomalous origin. Aneurysms are defined as dilations of a coronary vessel 1.5 times the normal adjacent coronary artery segment. Coronary artery fistulas are communications between one or more coronary arteries and a cardiac chamber (coronary-cameral), the pulmonary artery, or a venous structure (such as the sinus or superior vena cava).

Abstract:
Patients presenting with acute chest pain constitute a common and important diagnostic challenge. This has increased interest in using computed tomography for non-invasive visualization of coronary artery disease in patients presenting with acute chest pain to the emergency department; particularly the subset of patients who are suspected of having an acute coronary syndrome, but without typical electrocardiographic changes and with normal troponin levels at presentation. As a result of rapid developments in coronary computed tomography angiography technology, high diagnostic accuracies for excluding coronary artery disease can be obtained. It has been shown that these patients can be discharged safely. The accuracy for detecting a significant coronary artery stenosis is also high, but the presence of coronary artery atherosclerosis or stenosis does not imply necessarily that the cause of the chest pain is related to coronary artery disease. Moreover, the non-invasive detection of coronary artery disease by computed tomography has been shown to be related with an increased use of subsequent invasive coronary angiography and revascularization, and further studies are needed to define which patients benefit from invasive evaluation following coronary computed tomography angiography. Conversely, the implementation of coronary computed tomography angiography can significantly reduce the length of hospital stay, with a significant cost reduction. Additionally, computed tomography is an excellent modality in patients whose symptoms suggest other causes of acute chest pain such as aortic aneurysm, aortic dissection, or pulmonary embolism. Furthermore, the acquisition of the coronary arteries, thoracic aorta, and pulmonary arteries in a single computed tomography examination is feasible, allowing ‘triple rule-out’ (exclusion of aortic dissection, pulmonary embolism, and coronary artery disease). Finally, other applications, such as the evaluation of coronary artery plaque composition, myocardial function and perfusion, or fractional flow reserve, are currently being developed and may also become valuable in the setting of acute chest pain in the future.

Abstract:
Coronary artery anomalies occur either in isolation or in the context of congenital heart defects (CHD). Isolated coronary artery anomalies include anomalies of connection to the pulmonary artery or to the aorta, anomalies of the intrinsic coronary arterial anatomy including anomalous orifices, and anomalies of myocardial/coronary arterial interaction including myocardial bridges and fistulae. Such defects are of major significance in clinical cardiology and cardiac surgery because of their association with myocardial ischaemia and sudden death. Coronary anomalies associated with CHD can result from three types of developmental perturbation: (1) anomalous epicardial course (in congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries and L-looped ventricles), (2) anomalous communication with a high-pressure ventricular cavity (pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum and hypoplastic left heart syndrome), or (3) anomalous connection to the aorta. Outflow tract defects represents 30–40% of CHD, and their main characteristic is great artery defects influencing coronary arterial anatomy.

Abstract:
The heterogeneity of adult congenital heart disease requires a thorough understanding of cardiac anatomy as well as common surgical and interventional techniques. Echocardiographic studies should be comprehensive and performed in a structured fashion, to avoid missing important anatomical or functional information. The majority of clinical questions can be answered based on the results of echocardiographic studies, but the echocardiographer should be aware of the inherent limitations of the technique and additional image modalities such as cardiac magnetic resonance and computed tomography should be used when appropriate. Assessment of pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance may be essential and still requires cardiac catheterization.
