Objectives

Narrative objectives1

1. The first aim of this study is to compare the right ventricular cardiac metabolism and efficiency, vascular resistance with normal controls.
2. The second aim of this study is to evaluate the chronic therapeutic effects of vasodilators such as endothelin antagonists, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors, prostanoids, or their combination on right ventricular cardiac metabolism and efficiency using carbon-11 dynamic positron emission tomography.
3. The third aim of this study is to compare the right ventricular cardiac metabolism and efficiency, vascular resistance with other PH specific clinical parameters including right ventricular catheter measurements, exercise capacity, other imaging modalities, and biomarkers.

Interventions/Control_1

We will look at the effects of vasodilators such as endothelin antagonists, phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors, or their combination on pulmonary hypertension and myocardial oxidative metabolism.
PH patients will be divided into 3 groups such as new treatment group, no vasodilator treatment group, and already have vasodilators without changing treatment regime.
We will evaluate the therapeutic response 3 months after the treatment.

Interventions/Control_2

no vasodilator treatment group

Interventions/Control_3

already have vasodilators without changing treatment
