CRC Press (Verlag)
978-0-367-38542-2 (ISBN)
Discussing controversies and concepts in PH diagnosis and management, this guide explores:
classification and epidemiology, pathology, pathogenesis, genetics, and diagnosis of PH
causes of the condition, such as idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH)
PAH-complicating connective tissue diseases (CTD), congenital heart diseases, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), and other disorders
the mechanisms, toxicities, and efficacy of therapeutic agents
the role of combination therapies, novel agents, and future directions
PH in specific patient populations such as pregnant and critically-ill patients in the ICU
Marc Humbert, Joseph P. Lynch III
