Preferred Label : Pulmonary Artery Pulsatility Index;
NCIt related terms : PAPi;
NCIt definition : A predictive measure of right ventricular failure after inferior myocardial infarction
and left ventricular assist device implantation. It is calculated from the ratio of
the pulmonary artery pulse pressure to right atrial pressure (calculated systolic
pulmonary arterial pressure - diastolic pulmonary pressure)/right atrial pressure).;
Alternative definition : ACC/AHA: Pulse pressure across pulmonary artery divided by RA (calculated systolic
pulmonary arterial pressure - diastolic pulmonary pressure)/right atrial pressure);
