In brief

Study evaluates echocardiographic markers of pulmonary vascular resistance and right ventricular function as predictors of mortality or ECMO requirement in neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. Noninvasive assessment of pulmonary vascular compliance may help risk-stratify CDH patients in the early postnatal period.

Abstract

Aim

To evaluate echocardiographic indices of pulmonary vascular resistance and right ventricular (RV) function in predicting death or ECMO in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).

Methods

In this single center study, early (
