Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The pulmonary hypertension (PH) and right heart dysfunction that results from chronic thromboembolic involvement of the pulmonary vascular bed is potentially curable with surgical endarterectomy. Over the past several decades, growing clinical experience

Emergencies in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Emergencies are frequent in people living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (pALS), especially as the disease progresses, and can necessitate urgent evaluation and intervention. Progressive weakness in ALS inevitably increases fall risk, making discussion of fall prevention strategies integral to caring for pALS.

Quantitative Dual‐Energy CT Perfusion Versus SPECT/CT V/Q Scintigraphy for Preoperative Lung Function Assessment: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Accurate preoperative physiological assessment is critical for high‐risk patients undergoing lung resection to predict postoperative lung function. This study compared quantitative dual‐energy CT (DECT) perfusion with SPECT/CT for lobar perfusion mapping in an at‐risk oncological cohort.

Persistent exercise intolerance after pulmonary endarterectomy for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yes, 2020
AIM: Haemodynamic normalisation is the ultimate goal of pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). However, whether normalisation of haemodynamics translates into normalisation of exercise capacity is ...

Noninvasive follow-up strategy after pulmonary endarterectomy for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yes, 2022
BACKGROUND: The success of pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is usually evaluated by performing a right heart catheterisation (RHC).

Pulmonary Embolism—A Century of Progress

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Reviews a century of progress in the diagnosis, prevention, and management of pulmonary embolism; from the first successful surgical embolectomy in 1924 to advanced imaging, pharmacological thromboprophylaxis, and treatment. In the 21st century, advances include catheter‐directed thrombolysis or mechanical thrombectomy under decision‐making guidance of

Overview of Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, Risk factors, Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yes, 2018
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is one of the curable forms of pulmonary hypertension, but CTEPH can be lethal without treatment.

Pulmonary hypertension in patients with chronic myeloproliferative disorders

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2015
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a major complication of several haematological disorders. Chronic myeloproliferative diseases (CMPDs) associated with pulmonary hypertension have been included in group five of the clinical classification for pulmonary ...
