Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) related to an atrial septal defect (ASD) poses a challenge to transcatheter closure of an ASD (tcASD). We aimed to determine the predictors for remaining PAH (rPAH) post-tcASD. This retrospective study was conducted at a single tertiary university hospital. Adult patients with an ASD and PAH were divided into three groups according to pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). Normalization of pulmonary atrial systolic pressure (PASP) was defined as an estimated right ventricular systolic pressure < 40 mmHg and was determined using transthoracic echocardiography. Among 119 patients, 80% showed PAH normalization post-tcASD. Normalization of PAH post-tcASD was observed in 100%, 56.2%, and 28.6% of patients in mild, moderate, and severe PVR groups, respectively. The patients' New York Heart Association functional class improved. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age and high PVR were significant risk factors for rPAH. A receiving operator curve analysis showed a PASP cutoff value > 67.5 mmHg to be predictive of rPAH post-tcASD, with an area under the curve value of 0.944 (sensitivity, 0.922; specificity 0.933). Most patients, including moderate-to-severe PAH patients, improved hemodynamically and clinically with tcASD. Since patients with severe PAH are at a risk of rPAH, tcASD should be performed by selecting the patient carefully based on pre-procedure medication, a vasoreactivity test, and a balloon occlusion test.
