Splet(PCWP) and right atrial pressure (RAP) numbers to determine whether volume versus vascular resistance is driving the elevated PA pressures. • Note differences of ≥ 5 mmHg between PCWP and sensor pulmonary artery diastolic (PAD) and consider the discordance when establishing PA pressure threshold range. SpletCHF patients with central apnea would have greater pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) than patients without central apnea and that PCWP would correlate with central apnea severity. Methods and Results—Seventy-five stable CHF patients underwent right heart catheterization and, on the basis of
