Multicenter Study Comparative Study Clinical TrialA comparison of the acute hemodynamic effects of inhaled nitric oxide and aerosolized iloprost in primary pulmonary hypertension. German PPH study group.
We sought to compare the acute hemodynamic effects of inhaled nitric oxide (NO) and aerosolized iloprost in primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH). ⋯ During acute drug testing, aerosolized iloprost was more potent than inhaled NO as a pulmonary vasodilator in PPH at the doses used in this study.
