Clinical application of pulmonary vascular resistance in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a type of malignant pulmonary vascular disease, which is mainly caused by the increase of pulmonary vascular resistance due to the pathological changes of the pulmonary arteriole itself, which eventually leads to right ...

The resistance to blood flow offered by the pulmonary vasculature, which is normally one sixth of SVR. The major determinant of PVR is pulmonary vessel constriction, most often caused by hypoxia and/or hypercardia.

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 ...

Omics and Extreme Phenotyping Reveal Longitudinal Association Between Left Atrial Size and Pulmonary Vascular Resistance in Group 2 Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]
Background Left heart disease is the most common cause of pulmonary hypertension (PH) and is frequently accompanied by increases in pulmonary vascular resistance.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication of many chronic lung diseases, especially COPD and interstitial lung disease (ILD) [1]. In these conditions, the development of PH is associated with an aggravation of symptoms and an increase in ...

Elevated pulmonary vascular resistance predicts mortality in COPD patients
COPD is frequently associated with mild to moderate pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, a small subset of patients develops severe PH, which is currently haemodynamically defined as mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) ≥35 mmHg, or mPAP ≥25 mmHg in ...
