Hemodynamically Unloading the Distal Pulmonary Circulation in Pulmonary Hypertension: A Modeling Study

Rachelle Walter, Kendall Hunter, Kurt Stenmark, Vitaly O. KheyfetsUniversity of ColoradoUnited States Journal of Biomechanical EngineeringJ Biomech Eng 2022; 144: DOI: 10.1115/1.4051719 AbstractPulmonary hypertension (PH) is a progressive disease that is characterized by a gradual increase in both resistive and reactive pulmonary arterial (PA) impedance. Previous studies in a rodent model of PH have shown that
