Article Synopsis
- Sildenafil treatment may benefit patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction and severe pulmonary hypertension, traditionally seen as unsuitable for heart transplantation.
- In a study of 18 patients, significant improvements in heart function and reduced pulmonary resistance were observed after 8.7 months on sildenafil.
- The results suggest that sildenafil could enhance survival rates, particularly in patients who achieve lower pulmonary vascular resistance levels post-treatment.
