The isobaric pulmonary arterial compliance in pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
Pulmonary hypertension is associated with stiffening of pulmonary arteries which increases right ventricular pulsatile loading. High pulmonary artery wedge pressure (PAWP) in postcapillary pulmonary hypertension (Pc-PH) further decreases pulmonary ...

Effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on pulmonary compliance and pulmonary complications in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy: a randomized control trial. [PDF]
Background To observe the effects of different positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilation strategies on pulmonary compliance and complications in patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostate surgery. Methods A total of 120 patients

Measuring pulmonary arterial compliance: mission impossible? Insights from a novel in vivo continuous-flow based experimental model [PDF]
Arterial compliance (C) is related to the elasticity, size, and geometrical distribution of arteries. Compliance is a determinant of the load that impedes ventricular ejection.

The prognostic value of pulmonary artery compliance in cardiogenic shock [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the pathophysiological role and the prognostic significance of pulmonary artery compliance (C PA ), a measure of right ventricular pulsatile afterload, in cardiogenic shock. We retrospectively included 91 consecutive

Empiric Pulmonary Arterial Compliance Reflects the Resistance‐Compliance Relationship and Predicts Mortality in Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]
The resistance–compliance (RC) relationship between pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and pulmonary arterial compliance (PAC) provides an integrative measure of global right ventricular (RV) afterload.

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

The effects of low tidal ventilation on lung strain correlate with pulmonary compliance [PDF]
Methods Nineteen patients were divided into high (Chigh group) and low pulmonary compliance (Clow group) groups based on their pulmonary compliance values (0.6 ml/[cmH2O·kg]).

P171 COMPLIANCE OF EXTREMELY DILATED MAIN PULMONARY ARTERIES IN PULMONARY ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION
Background: Main pulmonary artery (MPA) dilation is a radiological sign of pulmonary hypertension (PH) and is an independent risk factor of sudden death (Żyłkowska et al, Chest 2012). Extreme MPA dilation is a rare consequence of PH.

Pulmonary vascular resistance and compliance relationship in pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
Right ventricular adaptation to the increased pulmonary arterial load is a key determinant of outcomes in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and total arterial compliance (C) quantify resistive and elastic properties of pulmonary arteries that modulate the steady and pulsatile components of pulmonary arterial load ...
