Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension following long-term peripherally inserted central venous catheter use

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2019
A 36-year-old woman presented with recurrent pulmonary emboli (PE) despite oral anticoagulation. She was a type I diabetic with severe gastroparesis requiring insertion of multiple long-term peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) over a 10-year ...

Pulmonary hypertension in chronic lung disease and hypoxia

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2019
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) frequently complicates the course of patients with various forms of chronic lung disease (CLD). CLD-associated PH (CLD-PH) is invariably associated with reduced functional ability, impaired quality of life, greater oxygen ...

A Topological Data Analysis Study on Murine Pulmonary Arterial Trees with Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Pulmonary hypertension (PH), defined by a mean pulmonary arterial blood pressure above 20 mmHg, is a cardiovascular disease impacting the pulmonary vasculature. PH is accompanied by vascular remodeling, wherein vessels become stiffer, large vessels dilate, and smaller vessels constrict.

Pulmonary hypertension associated with left-sided heart disease

open access: yesSwiss Medical Weekly, 2017
Pulmonary hypertension associated with left-sided heart disease (PH-LHD) is the most common type of pulmonary hypertension. In patients with left-sided heart disease, the presence of pulmonary hypertension is typically a marker of more advanced disease,

Predicting Pulmonary Hypertension by Electrocardiograms Using Machine Learning [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a condition of high blood pressure that affects the arteries in the lungs and the right side of the heart (Mayo Clinic, 2017). A mean pulmonary artery pressure greater than 25 mmHg is defined as Pulmonary hypertension.

PHT-bot: Deep-Learning based system for automatic risk stratification of COPD patients based upon signs of Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]

open access: yesProc. SPIE 10950, Medical Imaging 2019: Computer-Aided Diagnosis, 109500O, 2019
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Identifying those at highest risk of deterioration would allow more effective distribution of preventative and surveillance resources. Secondary pulmonary hypertension is a manifestation of advanced COPD, which can be reliably diagnosed by the main ...

An overview of the 6th World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2019
Since 1973 the World Symposia on Pulmonary Hypertension (WSPH) proceedings have summarised the scientific advances and future needs in this field through the efforts of multiple task forces, each focusing on a different aspect of pulmonary hypertension ...

Application and reduction of a nonlinear hyperelastic wall model capturing ex vivo relationships between fluid pressure, area and wall thickness in normal and hypertensive murine left pulmonary arteries [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Pulmonary hypertension is a cardiovascular disorder manifested by elevated arterial blood pressure together with vessel wall stiffening and thickening due to alterations in collagen, elastin and smooth muscle cells. Hypoxia-induced (type 3) pulmonary hypertension can be studied in animals exposed to a low oxygen environment for prolonged time periods ...

Pathophysiology of the right ventricle and of the pulmonary circulation in pulmonary hypertension: an update

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2019
The function of the right ventricle determines the fate of patients with pulmonary hypertension. Since right heart failure is the consequence of increased afterload, a full physiological description of the cardiopulmonary unit consisting of both the ...
