Noncardiothoracic nonobstetric surgery in mild-to-moderate pulmonary hypertension.
The anaesthetic management and follow-up of well-characterised patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension presenting for noncardiothoracic nonobstetric surgery has rarely been described. The details of consecutive patients and perioperative complications during the period January 2000 to December 2007 were reviewed. Repeat procedures in duplicate patients were excluded. Longer term outcomes ...
متن کاملPulmonary hypertension in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis with mild-to-moderate restriction.
The clinical course of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is not known except in advanced disease.488 subjects in a placebo-controlled study of ambrisentan in IPF with mild-moderate restriction in lung volume, underwent right heart catheterisation (RHC) at baseline and 117 subjects (24%) had repeated haemodynamic measurements at 48 weeks. The subjects were catego...
متن کاملPulmonary Arterial Hypertension-Specific Drug Therapy in COPD Patients with Severe Pulmonary Hypertension and Mild-to-Moderate Airflow Limitation.
BACKGROUND Patients with severe pulmonary hypertension (PH) associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) present a poor outcome. Specific PH treatment could improve the clinical and hemodynamic status of these patients but may worsen arterial blood gases. OBJECTIVES Our study retrospectively included 28 patients with severe precapillary PH (mean pulmonary arterial pressure >35...
متن کاملThalassemia Associated Pulmonary Hypertension
Cardiac disease is the main cause of death in both forms of thalassemia; thalassemia major (TM) and thalassemia intermedia (TI). Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is one of the cardiopulmonary morbidities with high mortality that, if not treated, may trigger right-sided heart failure and premature death. PH is defined as a mean pulmonary artery pressure of ≥25 mmHg at rest or ≥30 mmHg during exercise...
متن کاملSex and Hemodynamics in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Introduction: Female sex is a risk factor for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), yet women have better survival than men. We sought to determine if sex was associated with baseline hemodynamics in subjects with PAH, and whether age modified these relationships. Material and Methods: We conducted a pooled analysis from 11 randomized trials submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. ...
