Summary

This single-arm, retrospective study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of subcutaneous treprostinil as a bridge therapy for lung transplantation in patients with severe pulmonary hypertension (PH). A total of 46 patients with either pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or chronic lung disease-associated PH (CLD-PH) were included, all of whom were referred for lung transplantation between January 1, 2015, and September 1, 2024. The study examines changes in clinical, functional, and hemodynamic parameters following 3-6 months of treprostinil therapy.
