Pulmonary artery blood flow dynamics in chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

Scientific Reports, 2023
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is caused by incomplete resolution and organization of thrombi. Blood flow dynamics are involved in thrombus formation; however, only a few studies have reported on pulmonary artery blood flow dynamics in ...

Effect of riociguat on pulmonary arterial compliance in the PATENT and CHEST studies

Pulmonary Circulation, 2020
Pulmonary arterial compliance is a measure of the pulsatile afterload of the right ventricle. Lower pulmonary arterial compliance is associated with reduced right ventricular function and worse prognosis in pulmonary hypertension. The effect of pulmonary

Central Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation and Early Rehabilitation for Persistent Severe Pulmonary Hypertension Following Pulmonary Endarterectomy [PDF]

Acute and Critical Care, 2019
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is potentially curable with a pulmonary endarterectomy. However, approximately 20% of patients have persistent pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy, which is a major risk factor for ...
