Article Synopsis
  • Pulmonary hypertension (PH) increases blood pressure in pulmonary arteries, leading to serious complications like low oxygen delivery, and this study examines its effects on patients with congestive heart failure after a heart attack (STEMI).
  • Researchers analyzed data from nearly 27,000 STEMI patients (with 95 having group II PH) to evaluate mortality rates and other health outcomes using the National Inpatient Sample database from 2017 to 2020.
  • The findings indicated that patients with GIIPH had significantly higher in-hospital mortality rates and longer hospital stays compared to those without PH, underscoring the negative impact of GIIPH on health and economic outcomes.
