This study looks to develop a multi-scale computational model of Pulmonary Hypertension, this
clinical model will be calibrated using longitudinal, retrospectively and prospectively
acquired human clinical data.
clinical model will be calibrated using longitudinal, retrospectively and prospectively
acquired human clinical data.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients has been clinically diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension (>25 mmHg) or
patient is a biopsy-proven non-rejecting cardiac transplant recipient
- Receiving partial or full care from pediatric cardiology team at Mott Children's
Hospital (may have a primary cardiologist elsewhere).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Girls and women who are pregnant or actively trying to become pregnant
- Patients with significant neurocognitive impairment that precludes their ability to
sign a consent form
- Patient has a contraindication to right-heart catheterization (RHC) examination, which
includes patients with hypoxia and those who have difficulty maintaining supine
position for the procedure.
- Patients with the following genetic syndromes:Trisomy 21 if unable to assent or
consent, Trisomy 18,Trisomy 13, Other genetic syndromes at the discretion of the
Primary Investigator
- Patients with unrepaired single ventricles (i.e., Pre-Fontan physiology)
- Patients who have heart failure and are deemed to be high risk to undergo tests that
require sedation/anesthesia.
- Patients who require IV sedation or general anesthesia for research only MRI
- Patients with a pacemaker/internal defibrillator will be excluded from MRI PORTION
