Dynamics of mean pulmonary artery pressure and lung function parameters in bronchial asthma patients treated with different drugs
Abstract
The mean pulmonary artery pressure using Doppler echocardiography and lung function were studied in 131 bronchial asthma patients. Nifedipine, phenoterol and ipratropium bromide in acute tests effectively decreased the pulmonary artery pressure. Two-week treatment with nebulized ipratropium bromide and phenoterol also decreased the pulmonary artery pressure and improved the lung function parameters. The influence of the drugs on the mean pulmonary artery pressure in the asthma patients depended on a portion of the residual volume in the total lung capacity and the peak expiratory flow rate.
