Management of Pulmonary Hypertension in the Pediatric Patient
Cardiology Clinics, 2022Pediatric pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a rare disease with historically very high morbidity and mortality. In the past 20 years, there has been a growing recognition that pediatric PH, although having similarities to adult PH, is a unique entity with its own particular pathogeneses, presentation, and management.

Pediatric primary pulmonary hypertension
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001Primary pulmonary hypertension is a disease for which there is no single best therapy. Rather, it is a process that progresses inexorably to disability and death, for which there are a variety of palliative therapies, all with significant side effects, and none curative. Nevertheless, it is clear that the available therapies improve the quality of life

Pediatric Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Current Hypertension Reports, 2013Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) can cause morbidity and mortality in children. Although adult and pediatric PAH share many similarities, many differences have been found in children. Thus, a new classification for pediatric pulmonary hypertensive vascular disease has been proposed. Both child and adult gene mutation carriers with PAH tend to have

Echocardiography in Pediatric Pulmonary Hypertension
Paediatric Respiratory Reviews, 2013Pediatric pulmonary hypertension is a complicated disease with multiple etiologies and high mortality. Echocardiography is at the forefront of evaluation as a noninvasive, portable imaging modality that can yield diagnostic and prognostic information regarding this disease. Echocardiography is known for its ability to give an anatomic assessment of the

Emergency Management of Pediatric Pulmonary Hypertension
Pediatric Emergency Care, 2016Pulmonary hypertension (PH) does not refer to a specific disease but rather a clinical manifestation emanating from a decrease in functional pulmonary vasculature resulting in progressively elevated right ventricle pressure and ultimately right heart failure. It is an uncommon disease process, but because of advancements in treatment, improved survival,

Trends in Hospitalization for Pediatric Pulmonary Hypertension
Pediatrics, 2015BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has been associated with substantial morbidity and mortality in children, but existing analyses of inpatient care are limited to small single-institution series or focused registries representative of selected patient subgroups.
