Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) blunts hypoxic pulmonary hypertension in animal models, but its acute hemodynamic effects in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) are not known. The aim of this study was to determine if human B-type natriuretic peptide is a safe and efficacious pulmonary vasodilator in patients with PAH and if the pulmonary hemodynamic effects are potentiated by phosphodiesterase inhibition.
