Brief Summary

Efficacy and safety evaluation of tolvaptan in the treatment of patients with right heart failure caused by pulmonary arterial hypertension

Detailed Description

The study is a prospective, single-center, randomized controlled trial. Specifically, the research focuses on patients with right heart failure due to PAH in the Pulmonary Vascular Ward of Fuwai Hospital. Within 12 hours of admission, subjects were randomly assigned to two groups using the central randomization method. The dose of tolvaptan (15 mg/d) is added to standard therapy (including diuretics) for subjects in group A. Traditional standard therapy (including diuretics) is used for subjects in group B. The treatment lasts for a total of seven days to assess the efficacy and safety of tolvaptan in the treatment of PAH-induced right heart failure. An informed consent form must be signed by each participant in our study.
