A kutatási téma leírása:
The pulmonary arterial hypertension is a disease with poor prognosis and with no curative treatment available. One important contributor of this bad prognosis that due to uncharacteristic symptoms and the limits of the non-invasive testing the diagnosis is typically established at already advanced disease stage. The aim of the program is to ameliorate the diagnostic algorithms of PAH with investigation of the haemodynamic changes in the pulmonary arterial tree during exercise supplemented right heart catheterization, and characterization of the right ventricular load via echocardiographic testing and investigation of humoral markers.
