2 Factors in the ICU Management of Pulmonary Hypertension After Cardiopulmonary Bypass The lungs: ventilation The endothelium & smooth muscle: vasodilators Ca ++ RV LV The heart: RV supportive measures Hypoxia K + K + Endothelium-Dependent Pathways Change in PVR (%) cgmp pmol/ml Pre Post Pre Post Circulation
