Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a type of malignant pulmonary vascular disease, which is mainly caused by the increase of pulmonary vascular resistance due to the pathological changes of the pulmonary arteriole itself, which eventually leads to right heart failure and death. As one of the diagnostic indicators of hemodynamics, pulmonary vascular resistance plays an irreplaceable role in the pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. It provides more references for the evaluation of pulmonary arterial hypertension patients. This article summarizes the clinical application of pulmonary vascular resistance in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension.
肺动脉高压是一种恶性肺血管疾病,主要由肺小动脉自身病理改变导致肺血管阻力增加引起,最终导致右心衰竭和死亡。作为血流动力学的诊断指标之一,肺血管阻力在肺动脉高压的病理生理学、诊断和治疗中发挥着不可替代的作用。它为评估肺动脉高压患者提供了更多参考依据。本文综述了肺血管阻力在肺动脉高压患者中的临床应用。
