Iron Homeostasis at High Altitude in Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension
ABSTRACT Iron deficiency aggravates hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction, exacerbating the increase of pulmonary arterial pressure at high altitude (HA). This may be especially relevant for patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) travelling to HA, who moreover have a high prevalence of iron deficiency. Currently, no data is available on iron parameters

In pulmonary hypertension, exercise is limited by an impaired right ventricular (RV) stroke volume response. We hypothesized that improvement in exercise capacity after pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension ...

Operative classification of thromboembolic disease determines outcome after pulmonary endarterectomy [PDF]
Objective: We sought to determine whether type and location of thromboembolic disease in the pulmonary vascular tree predicts the hemodynamic result and clinical outcome in patients undergoing pulmonary endarterectomy.

Activin Signaling Inhibitors in Pulmonary Hypertension: A State‐of‐the‐Art Review
ABSTRACT Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disease of abnormal pulmonary vascular remodeling and vascular obliteration that results in right heart failure and death. PAH pathogenesis is strongly associated with mutations of the Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF‐β) superfamily signaling pathway, which has previously been challenging to ...

ABSTRACT Abnormal pulmonary hemodynamics during exercise may persist even after balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) for inoperable chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). We report two female patients who underwent long‐term supervised outpatient cardiac rehabilitation (CR) after BPA with continuous pulmonary vasodilators.

Perioperative management of massive pulmonary hemorrhage after pulmonary endarterectomy
Background: This study aims to evaluate our approaches and outcomes in patients who developed hemoptysis following pulmonary endarterectomy. Methods: Pulmonary endarterectomy was performed in 460 patients at Kartal Kosuyolu Training and Research Hospital

Magnetic resonance imaging of pulmonary arterial compliance after pulmonary endarterectomy
Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is the treatment of choice of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) [1]. However, successfully operated patients may continue to suffer from dyspnoea and limitation of exercise capacity, despite improvement ...

Anesthetic management of pulmonary endarterectomy in a patient with suprasystemic pulmonary pressure: a case report [PDF]
Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) is a potentially curative procedure for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension. A 34-year Indian male presented with supra-systemic pulmonary pressure was taken for PEA after achievable optimization. A successful PEA
