Consecutive Treatment for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Practice Limit under Objective

Payal Patel

In pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), little is known about the effects of consecutive mix treatment on practice limit. Through cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPX), we determined that using a maximum oxygen take-up (VO2) cutoff of 15 mL/min/kg for direct blend treatment was advantageous. The patients underwent CPX at pattern, 3, 6, and one year. Practice limit logically worked on in patients who were recently diagnosed with PAH because successive mix treatment was overhauled by patients' highest VO2. As a result, a rerun of the CPX evaluation can provide useful information regarding the suitability of objectively planned treatment for PAH.
