Impedancemetry in Patients Monitored for Pulmonary Hypertension (HPepic)
Pulmonary Hypertension
About this trial
This is an interventional prevention trial for Pulmonary Hypertension focused on measuring pulmonary hypertension, impedancemetry, cardiac output
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patient over 18 years and under 80 years
- Patients who have been diagnosed with PAH (group 1 PH according to the Nice 2013 classification) or post-embolic pulmonary hypertension (group 4 PH) under medical treatment;
- HTP incident or prevalent less than 6 months
- Patient coming for follow-up or emergency consultation or hospitalization with a clinical examination and a walking test
- Patient affiliated to a health insurance scheme
- Patient having signed informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subjects under juridical protections or tutelage measure
- pregnant or lactating woman
- pulmonary hypertension du to cardiac pathology, chronic respiratory disease, or uncertain determinism.
- pulmonary hypertension of group 4 treated surgically or endoscopically.
- pulmonary hypertension incident or prevail for 6 months or more
- contraindication to impedancemetry
- inability to perform a walking test
Sites / Locations
- CHU TOULOUSE hospital larrey
Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Experimental
cardiac impedancemetry
Monocentric cohort study, prospective, evaluating the variability of cardiac output measurement by resting and stress impedancemetry as a prognostic factor for PH. Patients are included via the competence center of the PHP of the Midi Pyrenees region. The cardiac output is measured by impedance measurement at rest and during the walking test. The NO / CO coupled transfer measurement is performed at rest. The physician performing the consultation will not know the results of the IPC and these results will not influence the subsequent management. The patient will be followed for 18 months as part of the research.
