Zusammenfassung

Background: Cardiopulmonary exercise test has been shown to be helpful for detection of subjects with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, even in patients with normal echocardiography. The prognostic value of oxygen uptake and systolic blood pressure under exercise conditions has been reported. It remains unclear when functional capacity, dead space ventilation and gas exchange improve following pulmonary endarterectomy. Methods: We studied cardiopulmonary exercise test, six minute walking test and quality of life in 15 patients undergoing pulmonary endartrectomy. Results: Anthropometric and haemodyna…
