Case #1
• 27yo woman with PMHx significant for
exercise induced asthma and anxiety
presenting to the ED after “almost passing
out”.
• She has a 10mnth old daughter and felt that
maybe she just hadn’t gotten into shape after
having the baby.
• SOB when she tries to jog or walk up her
stairs.
Case #2
• 29yo man with HIV presenting to the ED with
2 month h/o of worsening SOB on exertion
that has dramatically worsened over the past
week to the point that he is now having SOB
at rest and feeling dizzy when standing not on
any medications.
• Recently moved from California and has no
information in our system.
Case #3
• 42yo obese woman who doesn’t like doctors
that presented after she had worsening
fatigue and sob with minimal activity.
• She is a hairdresser and overall is upset that
she is overweight so never steps on a scale.
• She doesn’t take any medications.
• Has noticed swelling in her legs.
• TTE shows severe RV enlargement and PASP of
95mmHg with rt to left shunt seen.
Case #4
• 65yo woman with little PMHx presenting with
SOB and exhaustion. Has no medical problems
that she knows of, just retired from teaching for
the past 40years in California and relocated to
Ruidoso, NM.
• Previously playing 18 holes of golf, now only able
to walk 15ft before needing to stop and rest.
• Massive LEE and decreased mobility of her hands.
Case #5
• 83yo woman has been healthy her whole life now
presenting with worsening fatigue with exertion.
• Previously able to swim for 30 minutes a day and
walk for 30min, now sob with much less. Unable
to keep up with her friend.
• Experiencing palpitations and chest pressure
intermittently.
• TTE shows mild RA and RV enlargement with a
PASP of 55mmHg
Case #6
• 52yo man with ESRD on HD, htn, DM, CAD,
cirrhosis from hep C and prior ETOH abuse
and mild COPD, no longer smoking, admitted
after missing two HD appointments with
profound fluid overload.
• Also notes that he has had worsening SOB
over the past year and fluid retention.

Appropriate treatment and further evaluation
if necessary, including R&LHC
no
Is PAH due to CHD?
Echo with contrast
yes
no
Is PAH due to CTD, HIV?
Serologies
yes
Dx abnormal morphology; shunt:
Surgery. Medical treatment of PAH or evaluation for
further definition or other contributing causes,
including R&LHC if necessary
Dx Scleroderma, SLE, other CTD, HIV: Medical
treatment of PAH and further evaluation for
other contributing causes, including RHC
no
Is chronic PE suspected?

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Detection and Diagnosis
Is chronic PE suspected?
VQ scan
no
yes
Is chronic PE confirmed and operable?
Pulmonary angiogram
yes
VQ normal
no
Is PAH due to lung disease
or hypoxemia?
PFTs, arterial saturation
yes
Anatomic definition (CT, MRI may provide additional useful
but not definitive information):
Thromboendarterectomy if appropriate or medical
treatment; clotting evaluation; a/c
Dx parenchymal lung disease, hypoxemia, or sleep disorder:
Medical treatment, oxygen, positive pressure breathing
as appropriate, and further evaluation for other
contributing causes, including RHC if necessary
no
What limitations are caused by
the PAH?
Functional class; 6-minute walk
test
What are the precise pulmonary
hemodynamics?
RHC
Document exercise capacity regardless of cause of PH:
Establish baseline, prognosis and document progression/
response to treatment with serial reassessments
Document PA and RA pressures, PCWP (LV or LA pressure
if PCWP unobtainable or uncertain), transpulmonary gradient
CO, PVR, SvO2, response to vasodilators:
Confirm PAH, or IPAH if no other cause identified
Discuss genetic testing and counseling of IPAH

– PCWP
• Rule out left sided heart disease

Therapeutic Pathways
Therapies
• The only groups that have been approved for
the specialized medications for pulmonary
hypertension are Group 1 (pulmonary arterial
hypertension/PAH) and Group 4 (CTEPH)
• The other groups require treatment of the
underlying condition causing the elevated
pressures.
Therapeutic Options for PAH
Traditional therapies
• Supplemental O2
• Diuretics
• Oral vasodilators
– (CCB)
• Anticoagulants
– warfarin
• Inotropic agents
– Digitalis
FDA approved for PAH
• Prostanoids
–
–
–
–
Epoprostenol (flolan/veletri)
Treprostinil (IV/SQ/Inhaled)
Inhaled Iloprost
Oral treprostinil (Orenitram)
• ERA’s
– Bosentan
– Ambrisentan
– Macitentan
• PDE-5 Inhibitors
– Sildenafil
– Tadalafil
• Guanylate Cyclase Stimulator

tadalafil
Inhaled treprostinil
Prostanoids
• Prostacyclin (PGI2)- member of the
eicosanoids family, inhibits platelet activation
and effective vasodilator.
• Prostacyclin released by healthy endothelial
cells.
• Deficiency in PAH patients
• Several routes of administration:
– IV/parenteral, SQ, Inhaled, oral
IV Prostanoids
• Epoprostenol- Flolan and Veletri
– Half-life approximately 2-5min
• Treprostinil- Remodulin
– Half-life several hours
– Both administered in ng/kg/min
– Dosing never changes even if weight does, start
weight remains the same throughout duration of
therapy.
Single Lumen
Hickman
Catheter
• Never stop
infusion
• Never draw
labs from line
• Never flush
CADD Legacy Pump
SQ Prostanoids
• Treprostinil
(Remodulin) SQ
– Small catheter placed
in SQ tissue of the
abdomen
– Site changed every 35 weeks
Inhaled Prostanoids
• Iloprost (Ventavis)
– 6-9 treatments per day
– Fewer systemic effects than IV
• Treprostinil (Tyvaso)
– QID and dosed as breaths
• e.g. 3 breaths each inhalation that is increased by
increments of 3 up to 9.
• Single person nebulizer
– Pt must bring in machine from home if hospitalized
Inhaled Prostanoids
Tyvaso
Ventavis
Oral Prostacyclin
• Treprostinil (Orinetram)
– Antiplatelet and vasodilatory actions, including
pulmonary vasodilation
– FREEDOM-M trial (only study of 3 that met
endpoint)
– Available as 0.125mg, 0.25mg, 1mg, 2.5mg ER BID
• Starting dose 0.25mg bid and titrated Q3d as tolerated
• Only showed improved 6MWD as monotherapy
Endothelin Receptor Antagonist
• Endothelian-1 (ET-1) levels are increased in PAH and
found in the precapillary pulmonary microvasculature
which is the site of the increased vascular resistance in
PAH.
– Two G protein-coupled receptors for ET-1 have been
described: “ETA” and “ETB”
• Bosentan- dual antagonist
– 62.5 to 125mg BID
• Ambrisentan- Selective ETA receptor
– 5-10mg daily
• Macitentan- Dual but with increased selectivity for ETA
– 10mg daily
Phosphodiestrase-5 Inhibitors
• PDE5 Inhibitor- blocks the degradative action
of phosphodiesterdase type 5 on cyclic GMP
in smooth muscle cells resulting in
vasodilation of the vessels.
• Sildenafil- 20-80mg TID
• Tadalafil- 20-40mg daily
Guanylate Cyclase Stimulator
• Riociguat has a dual mode of action
– Synergist with endogenous nitric oxide
– Directly stimulating guanylate cyclase
independent of NO availability
• Phase 3 trial in the NEJM: 12 wk double-blind
randomized placebo-controlled trial at 124
centers in 30 countries for PAH patients
showed improved walk distance and
improvement in secondary end-points.
Cost per Year

Ongoing Management
• Standard of care is for PAH patients to be
established with a PH center for ongoing care.
– Multidisciplinary approach to care
• Patients on advance therapies to be seen
every 3 months if not more frequently
• Ongoing escalation of care, more evidence
coming out showing the importance of
combination therapies.
