<jats:sec> <jats:title>Background—</jats:title> <jats:p> In idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH), increased right ventricular (RV) power is required to maintain cardiac output. For this, RV O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> consumption (MVO <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> ) must increase by augmentation of O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> supply and/or improvement of mechanical efficiency–ratio of power output to MVO <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> . In IPAH with overt RV failure, however, there is evidence that O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> supply (perfusion) reserve is reduced, leaving only increase in either O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> extraction or mechanical efficiency as compensatory mechanisms. We related RV mechanical efficiency to clinical and hemodynamic parameters of RV function in patients with IPAH and associated it with glucose metabolism. </jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Methods and Results—</jats:title> <jats:p> The patients included were in New York Heart Association (NYHA) class II (n=8) and class III (n=8). They underwent right heart catheterization, MRI, and H <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> <jats:sup>15</jats:sup> O-, <jats:sup>15</jats:sup> O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> -, C <jats:sup>15</jats:sup> O-, and <jats:sup>18</jats:sup> FDG-PET. RV power and O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> supply were similar in both groups (NYHA class II versus class III: 0.54±0.14 versus 0.47±0.12 J/s and 0.109±0.022 versus 0.128±0.026 mL O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> /min per gram, respectively). RV O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> extraction was near-significantly lower in NYHA class II compared with NYHA class III (63±17% versus 75±16%, respectively, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> =0.10). As a result, MVO <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> was significantly lower (0.066±0.012 versus 0.092±0.010 mL O <jats:sub>2</jats:sub> /min per gram, respectively, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> =0.006). RV efficiency was reduced in NYHA class III (13.9±3.8%) compared with NYHA class II (27.8±7.6%, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> =0.001). Septal bowing, measured by MRI, correlated with RV efficiency ( <jats:italic>r</jats:italic> =−0.59, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> =0.020). No relation was found between RV efficiency and glucose uptake rate. RV mechanical efficiency and ejection fraction were closely related ( <jats:italic>r</jats:italic> =0.81, <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> <0.001). </jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusions—</jats:title> <jats:p>RV failure in IPAH was associated with reduced mechanical efficiency that was partially explained by RV mechanical dysfunction but not by a metabolic shift.</jats:p> </jats:sec>
