The hemodynamic definition of PH-LHD involves a mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) >25mm Hg at rest and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) of ≥15.The coexistence of mitral insufficiency is also a characteristic of PH-LHD. HFpEF is a condition caused by impaired relaxation of a stiffened myocardium as a consequence of an increased load to the left ventricle due to elevated systemic pressures.
