Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a serious condition in which the blood pressure inside the lung arteries is abnormally high, forcing the right side of the heart to work harder and eventually risking right heart failure. It is not a single disease but a state that can arise from many different underlying problems — including pulmonary arterial disease, left heart disease, chronic lung disease, unresolved blood clots, and other systemic conditions. Treatment is therefore highly individualised and depends on identifying which of the five recognised groups of PH a patient belongs to. Management ranges from long-term oral medications that dilate the pulmonary arteries, through catheter-based procedures, to major surgery and transplantation for the most severe cases. Outcomes have improved substantially over the past two decades thanks to newer targeted therapies, and many patients now live well with the condition for years.
Long-term oral or inhaled medications — endothelin receptor antagonists, PDE-5 inhibitors, or prostacyclin agents — that widen the lung arteries and slow disease progression, typically used for Group 1 pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Estimated cost: ~$500 – $1,000
