Dynamic Changes in Right Ventricle and Pulmonary Artery Coupling Among COPD Patients With Acute Exacerbation

5. juli 2026 opdateret af: Eslam Mohamed elsaeed Mahran Ali, Assiut University

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common, preventable, and manageable disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and airflow limitation. Acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) are major events in the course of the disease and are associated with increased hospital admissions, accelerated decline in lung function, impaired quality of life, and increased mortality. Assessment of exacerbation risk remains a key component of COPD management according to the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD).

Beyond its respiratory manifestations, COPD may have important cardiovascular consequences. Chronic hypoxia, pulmonary vascular remodeling, inflammation, and increased pulmonary vascular resistance may contribute to elevated pulmonary artery pressures and right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. Pulmonary hypertension associated with chronic lung disease is clinically important because it may worsen symptoms, exercise tolerance, and prognosis.

During acute exacerbations, worsening hypoxemia, hypercapnia, dynamic hyperinflation, and increased respiratory workload may further increase pulmonary vascular resistance and RV afterload. Transthoracic echocardiography provides a practical non-invasive method for evaluating right ventricular function and pulmonary hemodynamics through parameters such as tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE), pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP), and the TAPSE/PASP ratio, a recognized marker of RV-pulmonary artery coupling.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Previous studies have demonstrated an association between COPD exacerbations and pulmonary vascular involvement. Medrek et al. reported a higher prevalence of pulmonary hypertension among patients hospitalized for COPD exacerbations compared with non-hospitalized COPD patients. More recently, studies showed that pulmonary pressures increase significantly during AECOPD compared with the stable state and are associated with prolonged hospitalization and poorer clinical outcomes.

Despite these findings, the effect of acute hypercapnic COPD exacerbations on right ventricular function, pulmonary artery pressures, and RV-pulmonary artery coupling remains incompletely understood, particularly in critically ill patients requiring ICU admission. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the dynamic changes in right ventricular function and pulmonary artery pressures during acute hypercapnic COPD exacerbations and explore their relationship with clinical outcomes among patients admitted to the ICU.

the study aims to evaluate the dynamic changes in right ventricular-pulmonary artery coupling (TAPSE/PASP ratio) and pulmonary artery pressures during acute hypercapnic COPD exacerbations and their relationship with clinical outcomes among ICU patients.

Studiebefolkning

Patients aged more than 40 years diagnosed with COPD based on pulmonary function tests and admitted to ICU with severe AECOPD. Severe exacerbation is defined according to GOLD 2024 as an exacerbation requiring hospitalization or an emergency department visit, in addition to the acute worsening of respiratory symptoms occurring within ≤14 days.
