In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether pulmonary blood volume (PBV) derived from contrast echocardiography can serve as a non-invasive surrogate for invasive pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) during exercise. Also, to compare changes in PBV with exercise in patients with and without heart failure and pulmonary vascular disease.
