Figure 1 Acute Inhalation of Iloprost Lowered Mean PAP Equivalent to the Response to 40 ppm Inhaled NO
Inhaled nitric oxide (NO) (40 ppm) reduced mean pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) from 66 ± 13 mm Hg at baseline to 58 ± 18 mm Hg (p < 0.05 vs. baseline); n = 8. The reduction in mean PAP after acute inhalation of iloprost was similar to the level achieved with inhaled NO therapy (57 ± 19 mm Hg; p < 0.05 vs. baseline).
