1 Management of Pulmonary Hypertension: Evolution and Controversies VERMONT CARDIAC NETWORK SPRING CONFERENCE MAY 10, 2018 MARYELLEN ANTKOWIAK, MD, PULMONARY & CRITICAL CARE MEDICINE, UVMMC

2 WHO classification I: Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) II: Pulmonary Hypertension due to Left Heart Disease III: Pulmonary Hypertension due to Lung Disease and/or hypoxia IV: Pulmonary Hypertension due to chronic thrombotic / embolic disease V: Pulmonary Hypertension due to unclear or multifactorial mechanisms

3 Subclasses and etiologies of PH? WHO Group V Systemic S t i Circulation Pulmonary Circulation Pulmonary Arteries Systemic Arteries LA WHO Group I, IV RA WHO OG Group oup III Body Lung Systemic Veins RV WHO Group II LV Pulmonary Vi Veins

4 Classification of PH What determines pulmonary artery pressure? Pressure = Resistance x Flow Mean pulmonary pressure left atrial pressure = Resistance x Flow Mean pulmonary artery pressure = (Resistance x Flow) + left atrial pressure High cardiac output state WHO Group II WHO Group I G WHO Group III WHO Group IV

5 Pathophysiology and Pathogenesis

6 Pulmonary Hypertension: Historical Perspective Dr. Ernst von Romberg describes autopsy fi di findings off pulmonary l vascular l sclerosis l i 1960 s- Epidemic of PAH in western Europe attributed to aminorex fumarate st World Symposium Definition of elevated pulmonary artery pressure Dr. Robyn Barst publishes RCT of epoprostenol for PAH

22 COMPERA I P A H s s C P A H REVEAL

23 Exercise Initial treatment algorithms recommended avoidance of exercise Early 2000 s Recognition that exercise capacity correlates well with quality of life and p g prognosis Investigations into the safety and benefit of exercise in PH began g

24

25 Reported benefits of exercise in PH Increased 6 minute walk distance (~50-70 meters!) Improved quality of life scores Improved functional capacity Improved pain and depression scores? IImproved dh hemodynamic d i ((right i ht heart catheterization) measurements Improvements in VO2max

26 As a result of these trials Treatment algorithm updated from avoidance of exercise to avoidance of strenuous exercise European respiratory society guidelines changed to recommendation to include an exercise plan in treatment of PH

27 Critically ill patients with Pulmonary Hypertension Rhythm management: Highly susceptible to atrial arrhythmias May dramatically worsen hemodynamics Rhythm control / restoration favored over rate control Lacking data to support this Respiratory failure: Avoid intubation: Can be poorly tolerated from hemodynamic standpoint Some data that NIPPV may be better tolerated Pulmonary artery catheters: No societal guidelines recommending routine use

28 The Preload Controversy PH patients are preload dependent Fluid Fl id administration d i i t ti can result in: Worsened LV filling 2/2 to septal bowing bowing, increased RV ejection time Increased RV wall stress, decreased coronary perfusion RV ischemia perfusion,

29 Vasopressors and Ionotropes Phenylephrine- both SVR and PVR increased, reflexive bradycardia may worsen HDs V Vasopressini att doses d currently tl used d iin ICU is i a pulmonary l vasodilator dil t Dopamine- At </= 16mcg/kg/min increased CO w/o increasing PVR Take Home: Epinephrinep p more ((increased CO)) and 2 ((decreases PVR)) No 1great evidence to Norepinephrine- Probably a good choice extrapolating from acute favor vs.pvr others RV failure data but known one to increase Dobutamine- decreases PVR Dobutamine PVR, but complicated by arrhythmia risks and decreased SVR, may be a good adjunct Milrinone- theoretically more pulmonary vasodilation but otherwise similar risks of dobutamine with a less predictable half life, life caution in renal failure

30 On the Horizon? Implantable delivery system for IV prostacyclin? UVMMC? Advanced RV hemodynamic y support?
