- TABLE 3
Haemodynamic definitions of pulmonary hypertensiona
CO: cardiac output; DPG: diastolic pressure gradient (diastolic PAP – mean PAWP); mPAP: mean pulmonary arterial pressure; PAWP: pulmonary arterial wedge pressure; PH: pulmonary hypertension; PVR: pulmonary vascular resistance; WU: Wood units. aAll values measured at rest; see also section 8.0. bAccording to Table 4. cWood Units are preferred to dynes.s.cm−5.
- TABLE 7
Updated risk level of drugs and toxins known to induce pulmonary arterial hypertension
aIncreased risk of persistent pulmonary hypertension in the newborns of mothers with intake of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors; bAlkylating agents are possible causes of pulmonary veno-occlusive disease.
- TABLE 32
Haemodynamic classification of pulmonary hypertension due to lung disease [9]
CI: cardiac index; COPD: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; CPFE: combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema; IPF: idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis; PAP: pulmonary artery pressure; PAPm: mean pulmonary arterial pressure; PH: pulmonary hypertension.
