Abstract
- Systemic arterial pulsatility index (SAPi) is a novel hemodynamic marker for ventriculo-arterial coupling (VAC), as it integrates the contractile properties of the left ventricle with the aortic impendence. SAPi can identify heart failure patients at increased risk for adverse events. Systemic pulsatility decreases as heart failure progresses, and there is a decrease in pulse pressure accompanied by an increase in left ventricular filling pressure. Decreasing SAPi is associated with worse prognosis in advanced heart failure patients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
