Abstract
La hipertensión pulmonar es un trastorno progresivo y potencialmente fatal,que puede ser resultado de una patología cardiovascular subyacente, de una alteración intrínseca de la vasculatura pulmonar o una combinación de ambos factores. Su prevalencia e influencia en el pronóstico está bastante documentada en la población general. Sin embargo, la evidencia acerca de la prevalencia de la hipertensión pulmonar en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica y su valor pronóstico es escasa. Los principales objetivos de los estudios presentados en ésta tesis doctoral son: analizar la prevalencia de hipertensión pulmonar en pacientes con enfermedad renal crónica, los factores asociados con mayor riesgo de presentar esta entidad y su implicación en el pronóstico de estos pacientes...
Pulmonary hypertension is a progressive and potentially fatal disease,which may result of an underlying cardiovascular disorder, an intrinsic alteration ofthe pulmonary vasculature, or a combination of both factors. Its prevalence andinfluence on outcomes is well knowed and documented in general population.However, there is a lack of evidence about the prevalence of pulmonaryhypertension in Chronic Kidney Disease patients and its prognostic value. Themain objectives of the studies presented in this thesis are: to analyze theprevalence of pulmonary hypertension in patients with chronic renal failure, thefactors associated with a higher risk of presenting this entity and its implication inthe outcomes...
