Summary

In this prospective long term feasibility study we examine whether a goal oriented therapeutic strategy that is able to preserve right ventricular function will result in improved clinical outcome in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. We hypothesize that right ventricular function can only be preserved when early and aggressive medical combination therapy not only reduces pulmonary vascular resistance but also pulmonary pressures.
