Overview

High maternal risk persists in PAH pregnancy; leaves open vasodilator efficacy beyond small observational series.

Structured PICO

Does pulmonary vasodilator therapy improve outcomes in pregnant women with pulmonary arterial hypertension?

P
Population
3 primiparous pregnant women with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)
I
Intervention
Pulmonary vasodilator therapy during pregnancy
O
Outcome
Short-term maternal and fetal outcomes (delivery, complications, discharge)safety

Pulmonary vasodilator therapy may be used safely during pregnancy in women with PAH, potentially improving maternal and fetal prognoses despite the high risk of preterm delivery.
