  1. Δ Indicates the difference between pre- vs. post-BPA. RA = right atrium transverse dimension in four-chamber apical view; RA/LA = right atrium transverse dimension/left atrium transverse dimension in four-chamber apical view; RV = basal right ventricular linear dimension in four-chamber apical view; RV/LV = basal right ventricular linear dimension/basal left ventricular linear dimension in four-chamber apical view, SPAP = systolic pulmonary artery pressure; DMPA = diameter of main pulmonary artery; LVEF = left ventricular ejection fraction
