RECRUITINGPulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) at rest
Pulmonary Capillary Wedge pressure will be determined by right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis. Right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis will be performed at rest. Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure with feet elevated
Pulmonary Capillary Wedge pressure will be determined by right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis. Right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis will be performed with feet elevated. Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure at 20W exercise
Pulmonary Capillary Wedge pressure will be determined by right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis. Right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis will be performed at 20W exercise. Pulmonary Capillary Wedge Pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Right atrial pressure at rest
Right atrial pressure at rest will be determined by right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis. Right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis will be performed at rest. Right atrial pressure will be measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Right atrial pressure with exercise
Right atrial pressure at rest will be determined by right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis. Right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis will be performed with exercise. Right atrial pressure will be measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months

Pulmonary artery pressures at rest
Pulmonary artery pressures will be determined by right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis. Pulmonary artery pressures with expired gas analysis will be performed at rest. Pulmonary artery pressures will be measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Pulmonary artery pressures with exercise
Pulmonary artery pressures will be determined by right heart catheterization with expired gas analysis. Pulmonary artery pressures with expired gas analysis will be performed with exercise. Pulmonary artery pressures will be measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Cardiac output at rest
Cardiac output measures the amount of blood the heart pumps per minute. It is calculated by Cardiac Output= Oxygen Consumption/(Arterial - Venous Oxygen Content Difference). Cardiac output will be measured in liters per minute (L/min).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Cardiac output with exercise
Cardiac output measures the amount of blood the heart pumps per minute. It is calculated by Cardiac Output= Oxygen Consumption/(Arterial - Venous Oxygen Content Difference). Cardiac output will be measured in liters per minute (L/min).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Peak oxygen consumption (VO2) during exercise
Peak oxygen consumption (VO2) is measured in milliliters of oxygen per minute (mL/min).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Change in plasma volume
Plasma volume will be determined by radiolabeled iodinated albumin (131I, 5-25 μCu) indicator dilution technique (BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer, Daxor Corp, NY). Plasma volume will be measured in milliliters (mL).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Change in blood volume
Blood volume will be determined by radiolabeled iodinated albumin (131I, 5-25 μCu) indicator dilution technique (BVA-100 Blood Volume Analyzer, Daxor Corp, NY). Blood volume will be measured in milliliters (mL).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
SF-36 quality of life (QOL)
SF-36 quality of life (QOL) questionnaire is a 36-question questionnaire that evaluates a patient's quality of life. The score range is from 0-100, with a higher score reflecting a better quality of life.
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Change in fat mass
Fat mass will be determined by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Scan. Fat mass will be measured in kilograms (kg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
Change in fat free mass
Fat free mass will be determined by Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Scan. Fat free mass will be measured in kilograms (kg).
Time frame: Baseline, 24 Months
