Title: | Acute pulmonary-edema in patients with primary pulmonary-hypertension and normal pulmonary capillary wedge pressure | Authors: | VERLEDEN, G DEMEDTS, M VAN MIEGHEM, Walter |
Issue Date: | 1994 | Publisher: | ACTA CARDIOLOGICA | Source: | ACTA CARDIOLOGICA, 49(5). p. 483-488 | Abstract: | Acute pulmonary oedema with normal pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, occurred in 2 patients with primary pulmonary hypertension, probably due to veno-occlusive diseases. In both cases an increase in cardiac output induced by vasodilator therapy with a calcium antagonist or a viral infection with fever lead to an increase in hydrostatic pulmonary capillary pressure which was not identical to the pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. | Notes: | VANMIEGHEM, W, ST JANSZIEKENHUIS,LIMBURGS HARTCENTRUM,SCHIEPSEBOS,B-3600 GENK,BELGIUM. | Keywords: | ACUTE PULMONARY EDEMA; PRIMARY PULMONARY HYPERTENSION; PULMONARY CAPILLARY PRESSURE; PULMONARY CAPILLARY WEDGE PRESSURE | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/3674 | ISI #: | A1994PR90200009 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
