  4. Cardiac Catheterization • RA mean 10 mm Hg • RV 100/14 mm Hg • PA 100/40 (mean 60) mm Hg • PCW mean 12 mm Hg • LV 110/0-10 mm Hg • Ao 110/70 (mean 83) mm Hg • Cardiac Output 3.0 L/min • Room Air SaO2 82%; SvO2 50% • PVR 20 Units • No acute response to iNO

  5. Echocardiogram also demonstrated no intracardiac shunt

  6. Baseline HRCT Baseline PFTs (% Predicted) FVC 80% FEV1 80% TLC 76% DLCO 22% Arterial Blood Gases Room Air: pH 7.46 PCO2 32 PO2 51 100% O2: PO2 67 After 1 month of continuous intravenous epoprostenol therapy

  7. What Would YOU Do? • Begin oral therapy (either sildenafil or bosentan), and warfarin • Begin therapy with epoprostenol • Begin therapy with inhaled iloprost • Do something else

  8. What was Done • She was started on continuous intravenous epoprostenol and initially improved, with less dyspnea. • The dose of epoprostenol was gradually increased from 2-12 ng/kg/min • She returned 1 month later with the complaint of increased dyspnea. • SaO2 was 74%

  9. Before continuous intravenous epoprostenol therapy After 1 month of continuous intravenous epoprostenol therapy

  10. What Would YOU Do? • Add oral therapy (either sildenafil or bosentan) • Increase epoprostenol dose after diuresis • Discontinue epoprostenol and switch to another therapy • Refer for a thoracoscopic lung biopsy • Do something else

  11. What was Done • She was switched to inhaled prostanoid therapy • She stabilized but remained hypoxemic and her activity tolerance was severely impaired • She underwent lung transplantation 6 months later • What’s the Diagnosis?

  12. 1.Pulmonary arterial hypertension • Idiopathic PAH • Familial PAH • Related to: – Connective tissue diseases – HIV – Portal hypertension – Anorexigens – Congenital heart diseases • PPHN • PAH with venule/cap inv (PVOD) 3. PH with Lung Diseases/Hypoxemia • COPD • Interstitial lung diseases • Sleep-disordered breathing • Developmental abnormalities 4. PH due to chronic thrombotic and/or embolic disease • TE obstruction of proximal PA • TE obstruction of distal PA • Non thrombotic Pulm embolism 5. Miscellaneous 2.PH with left heart disease • Atrial or ventricular • Valvular Pulmonary Arterial HypertensionDiagnostic classificationJACC 2004 and Chest 2004

  13. Diagnosis of Pulmonary Hypertension Suspected Pulmonary Hypertension • Emphysema • Fibrosis • Thoracic abnl Sleep disorder • Left heart disease • Valvular/Congenital • Heart Disease Sleep Study Echocardiogram Chest X-Ray PFT’s • Scleroderma • SLE • RA • Vasculitis Ventilation- Perfusion scan, angiography Chronic Thrombo- embolism Autoantibody tests LFTs and clinical evidence of cirrhosis and portal htn HIV test HIV infection Portopulmonary Hypertension When Clinically Indicated Required

  28. Acute Testing of Vasoreactivity • Goal is to determine whether oral vasodilator therapy may be worthwhile as first-line approach • Testing should be performed in experienced setting with short-acting agent (ie, NO, PGI2, Adenosine) • Few patients who do not have PPH will respond

  29. Definition of “Responder” • Reduction of Pam to < 40 mm Hg: • With a >10% fall in Pam • And a normal CO • Without change in SAPm • PVR should be < 6 units JACC 2004: Proceedings of the Third World Symposium Chest 2004: ACCP Evidence-Based Guidelines

  31. ACCP PAH GuidelinesPredictors of Poor Survival • Advanced Functional Class (A) • Poor Exercise Endurance (6MWT) (A) • Presence of a Pericardial Effusion (A) • Elevated Mean Right Atrial Pressure (A) • Reduced Cardiac Index (A) McLaughlin VV et al. CHEST, 2004

  32. ACCP PAH GuidelinesPredictors of Poor Survival • Elevated Mean Pulmonary Artery Pressure (B) • Elevated Tei index (C) • Low VO2 max, peak SBP, DBP on CPET (C) • ECG findings of RAE, RVE (C) • Elevated BNP (C) McLaughlin VV et al. CHEST, 2004
