Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The reproducibility between hemodynamic measurements, made invasively in the left/right heart catheterization, should be assessed by non-invasive methods of impedance- and echocardiography. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To assess the comparative accuracy of invasively and non-invasively measured hemodynamic parameters in the prediction of the clinical outcome. | — |
