Impedancemetry in Patients Monitored for Pulmonary Hypertension
- Conditions
- Pulmonary Hypertension
- Interventions
- Device: cardiac impedancemetry
- Registration Number
- NCT03673774
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Toulouse
- Brief Summary
Monocentric cohort study, prospective, evaluating the variability of cardiac output measurement by resting and stress impedancemetry as a prognostic factor for Pulmonary Hypertension
- Detailed Description
Cardiac impedancemetry is a technique that allows an electrical representation of cardiac flows. To do this, 6 electrodes are applied to the thorax and a low intensity and high frequency electrical current is transmitted. The impedance is recorded and the variations of the impedance represent the changes in intra-thoracic volume and thus the volume of systolic ejection. This measurement can be done at rest but also during exercise during the walking test. A test of the NO / CO coupled transfer measurement is also performed.
The devices that will be used in this project are the Physio-Flow® system and Masterscreen NO / CO coupled transfer measurement device

Group Intervention Description cardiac impedancemetry cardiac impedancemetry Monocentric cohort study, prospective, evaluating the variability of cardiac output measurement by resting and stress impedancemetry as a prognostic factor for PH. Patients are included via the competence center of the PHP of the Midi Pyrenees region. The cardiac output is measured by impedance measurement at rest and during the walking test. The NO / CO coupled transfer measurement is performed at rest. The physician performing the consultation will not know the results of the IPC and these results will not influence the subsequent management. The patient will be followed for 18 months as part of the research.
