About this trial
To determine whether changes in endothelial cell dysfunction are associated with changes in total pulmonary resistance in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Subjects aged between 18-75 years old
PAH which is: idiopathic; PAH heritable; PAH associated with connective tissue disease; PAH after ≥ 1 year repair of congenital systemic to pulmonary shunt; or PAH associated with anorexignes or other drugs.
Resting mean pulmonary artery pressure ≥25 mmHg, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure ≤15 mmHg, PVR >5 wood units, and normal or reduced cardiac output, as measured by a previous right heart catheterisation (RHC).
Have an insertable FDA/CE cardiac rhythm monitor and pulmonary artery pressure monitor that captures cardiopulmonary haemodynamics and daily activity.
