Beneficial effects of riociguat on hemodynamic responses to exercise in CTEPH patients after balloon pulmonary angioplasty – A randomized controlled study

Background: Although balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) improves symptoms and pulmonary hemodynamics in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), the effects of riociguat on hemodynamics and exercise capacity in patients after BPA remain to be elucidated. Methods and Resu...
