Similar quality of life after balloon pulmonary angioplasty or pulmonary endarterectomy for CTEPH
We did not find evidence that QoL differed in 2 separate groups of patients who underwent either BPA or PEA. Multiple parameters pertaining to dyspnea and basic functionality were moderately correlated to QoL, this was not the case for hemodynamic parameters. These results indicate that when determining invasive treatment in CTEPH, QoL can be expected to improve with both treatments.
