Pharmaceutical Therapies for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Complicated by Pulmonary Hypertension
نویسندگان
چکیده
As a chronic lung condition, obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is well-known. our understanding of COPD’s consequences has grown, hypertension (PH) drawn growing amount attention. Patients’ quality life significantly impacted by the higher mortality and poor prognosis COPD patients with PH, there are still no effective medications available to treat condition. The development medication therapy for complicated PH was examined in order fully comprehend state disease’s treatment at moment. findings suggest that underlying disorders should be treated as well possible. Statin fasudil may also advantageous, although impact targeted debatable. effectiveness various will eventually need further elucidated larger randomized controlled studies.

Statins and Pulmonary Hypertension in Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
Chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) is a chronic multisystem disease with a considerable burden. One of its most common complications is pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH). It has been demonstrated that the development of PAH is correlated with decreased quality of life and survival. Different medications have been proposed for the treatment of PAH, among which one can name statins. Howeve...
متن کاملPulmonary hypertension in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Pulmonary hypertension is a common complication of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Its presence is associated with shorter survival and worse clinical evolution. In COPD, pulmonary hypertension tends to be of moderate severity and progresses slowly. However, transitory increases of pulmonary artery pressure may occur during exacerbations, exercise and sleep. Right ventricular func...
متن کاملSurgical therapies for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Surgical procedures for treating emphysema were first developed nearly 100 years ago. Despite a wide range of surgical procedures performed over the years, only three appear to have true clinical benefit: bullectomy, lung volume reduction surgery (LVRS), and lung transplantation. Lung volume reduction surgery has been reintroduced in the past decade and is currently under active research. A rec...
متن کاملNew Therapies for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major global health problem which is increasing throughout the world and a major cause of death. However, current therapies fail to prevent disease progression or mortality. The mainstay of current drug therapy are long-acting bronchodilators; several longer-acting inhaled 2 -agonists and muscarinic antagonists (and combinations) are now in deve...
متن کاملNew therapies for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the most common lung disease, carrying a significant mortality and morbidity. None of the therapeutic interventions currently available alter the progression of the disease. As our understanding of the basic mechanisms of alveolar destruction and airflow limitation improves, new targets are identified that may eventually result in treatment option...
