Key result
Perioperative management of pulmonary hypertension requires a multidisciplinary approach focused on preserving right ventricular function during non-cardiac, non-obstetric surgery.
Why the study?
There is a paucity of information and comprehensive evidence-based guidelines to guide perioperative evaluation and management of patients with pulmonary hypertension undergoing surgery.
Population
Patients with pulmonary hypertension undergoing non-cardiac, non-obstetric surgery
