Dr. Stuart Rich (RushPresbyterian, Chicago) and Dr. Robyn Barst (Columbia Presbyterian,
New York) have commenced a clinical study funded by the PPH Cure Foundation of whether
adding ACE inhibitors to standard medications improves the health of people with
pulmonary hypertension. The theory is that ACE inhibitors, at very low doses, will
prevent smooth muscle cell proliferation within pulmonary arterioles without give
rise to systemic hypotension. |
