Application treatment evaluation
Objective To examine long-term safety and efficacy of bosentan—an oral dual endothelin receptor antagonist—in patients with pulmonary hypertension associated with congenital heart disease or Eisenmenger’s syndrome.
p Value <0.001
Conclusion Mean (SD) functional class (p = 0.001) and the 6-minute walk test distance improved compared with baseline (284 (144) vs 363 (124) m, 380 (91) m and 408 (114) m at baseline, 0–6 months, 6–12 months and 1–2 years of treatment, respectively; p<0.05 for each).
