Abstract

PURPOSE: Ambrisentan is a highly selective oral endothelin receptor antagonist (ERA) shown to improve exercise capacity and delay clinical worsening in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Little is known of its effects on right heart structure and function with long-term therapy. We evaluated right-sided cardiac variables from surveillance echocardiograms and 6-minute walk distance (6MWD) in patients on maximum therapy.
