Investigation of Dysynchrony in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension
Recruiting
I'm InterestedTrial ID: NCT01571700
Purpose
The purpose of the study is to determine whether patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH)
have dysynchrony, and if so whether it is electrical or mechanical. Once this has been
determined, during a catheterization the investigators will test if pacing the heart improves
blood circulation.
