Abstract:
23 patients with mitral stenosid with or without mild mitral open, ages of 23-50 (male: 10) received an operation. As the results of direct measurement of pulmonary arterial pressure and left atrial pressure in an operation have shown that the pulmonary arterial pressure was direct correlated before and after operation(r= 0.572 before operation; r=0.65 after operation).These parameters were reduced significantly and rapidly after operation when comparing with these before operation.
