Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Pulmonary arterial mean pressure/Cardiac Output (PA/CO) at peak exerciseBaseline, Week 24

Peak exercise pulmonary arterial mean pressure/ Cardiac output (mm Hg/L/min)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Oxygen Consumption (VO2)Baseline, 24 weeks

VO2 will be measured in mL/kg/min. It will be directly measured using expired gas analysis.

Pulmonary vascular resistance at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

Pulmonary vascular resistance will be measured in Wood units (mmHg/L/min)

Pulmonary arterial (PA) compliance at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

PA compliance measures pulmonary arterial distensibility and will be recorded at Baseline and 24 Weeks. PA compliance will be measured in ml/mm Hg.

Pulmonary arterial elastance at restBaseline, 24 weeks

PA elastance measures pulmonary artery stiffness and will be recorded at baseline and 24 weeks as PA systolic pressure/stroke volume (units mm Hg/ml)

Pulmonary arterial elastance at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

PA elastance measures pulmonary artery stiffness and will be recorded at baseline and 24 weeks as PA systolic pressure/stroke volume (units mm Hg/ml)

Pulmonary arterial (PA) compliance at restBaseline, 24 weeks

PA compliance measures pulmonary arterial distensibility and will be recorded at Baseline and 24 Weeks. PA compliance will be measured in ml/mm Hg.

Left ventricular (LV) transmural pressure at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

LV transmural pressure will measured by catheterization at Baseline and 24 Weeks as the difference between pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and right atrial pressure

Single leg blood flow at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

Single leg blood flow will be obtained from venous access. Single leg blood flow will be measured in ml/min

Pulmonary vascular resistance at restBaseline, 24 weeks

Pulmonary vascular resistance will be measured in Wood units (mmHg/L/min)

Right Ventricular Pulmonary Artery Coupling at restBaseline, 24 weeks

Calculated as the ratio of RV function by echocardiography indexed to PA systolic pressure (unit mmHg-1)

Right Ventricular Pulmonary Artery Coupling at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

Calculated as the ratio of RV function by echocardiography indexed to PA systolic pressure (unit mmHg-1)

Right atrial pressure (RA) at restBaseline, 24 weeks

RA pressure (mm Hg) will be measured by catheterization conducted at Baseline and 24 weeks

Right atrial pressure (RA) at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

RA pressure (mm Hg) will be measured by catheterization conducted at Baseline and 24 weeks

Eccentricity index at peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

Eccentricity index will be calculated as the ratio of antero posterior and septolateral dimension of the left ventricle by echocardiogram

Change in skeletal muscle O2 diffusive conductance (Dm) during single leg exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

Dm is measured in ml/mm Hg/min during single leg exercise

Left ventricular (LV) transmural pressure at restBaseline, 24 weeks

LV transmural pressure will measured by catheterization at Baseline and 24 Weeks as the difference between pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and right atrial pressure

Eccentricity index at restBaseline, 24 weeks

Eccentricity index will be calculated as the ratio of antero posterior and septolateral dimension of the left ventricle by echocardiogram

Change in skeletal muscle O2 diffusive conductance (Dm) during peak exerciseBaseline, 24 weeks

Dm is measured in ml/mm Hg/min during peak exercise
