Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Abstract: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is defined by an increase in systolic (PAPs) and/or diastolic (PAPd) pulmonary artery pressure (PAP), which may lead to the development of right-sided congestive heart failure [1][2][3][4][5]. The normal PAP values in the awake dog range from 15 to 25 mm Hg in systole, 5 to 10 mm Hg in diastole, and 15 mm Hg for the mean PAP [1]. These values may rise moderately during physical exercise or at high altitude [1,5]. Systolic PAH is generally regarded as mild when the PAPs is … Show more

“…Echocardiography evaluation was performed using the Esaote MyLab Gamma® device (Genoa, Italy) with two sectoral transducers (1-4 MHz and 3-11 MHz). Echocardiography was performed according to the standards recommended by the Echocardiography Committee of the Specialty of Cardiology, American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine, with modifications suggested by Chetboul (2016).…”

“…It is used to estimate the systolic pressure of the PA from tricuspid regurgitation (TR). In addition, the presence of right ventricular hypertrophy, a flattened interventricular septum, an enlarged PA, and an increased diastolic PA pressure derived from the pressure of a regurgitant jet at the pulmonic valve can support a diagnosis of PH 9,10 . Radiography plays an important role in the assessment of changes in size and shape of the heart and pulmonary arteries and veins, and detection of pulmonary edema in dogs with MR 12–14 .…”
