Incidence of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary embolism.
BACKGROUND Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTPH) is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Its incidence after pulmonary embolism and associated risk factors are not well documented. METHODS We conducted a prospective, long-term, follow-up study to assess the incidence of symptomatic CTPH in consecutive patients with an acute episode of pulmonary embolism but wit...
متن کاملThe Incidence and Related Risk Factors of Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension after Acute Pulmonary Embolism.
OBJECTIVES More than half of (> 50%) the patients with choronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) have no acute pulmonary embolism history with clinical signs, so determining the actual incidence and prevalence of CTEPH is difficult. This study aimed to investigate the incidence of CTEPH and the risk factors that may be associated with CTEPH in patients with acute pulmonary thromboe...
متن کاملFrom acute pulmonary embolism to chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), a disease associated with considerable morbidity and mortality, is the consequence of unresolved thromboembolic occlusion in pulmonary vasculature. CTEPH was considered a rare disease occurring in 0.1-0.5% of patients with pulmonary emboli who survive. Recently, a much higher incidence was reported and some risk factors such as a previous p...

متن کاملThe predictive value of echocardiography for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension after acute pulmonary embolism in Korea
BACKGROUND/AIMS Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a life-threatening complication after acute pulmonary embolism (APE) and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to investigate the incidence of CTEPH after APE in Korea and to determine echocardiographic predictors of CTEPH. METHODS Among 381 patients with APE confirmed by chest computed...
