Clinical trial

Inhaled Selective Pulmonary Vasodilators for Advanced Heart Failure Therapies and Lung Transplantation Outcomes

Name
Pro00078035
Description
1. to conduct a clinical investigation to determine if inhaled epoprostenol (Veletri®, iEPO) and inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) will have similar impact on outcomes in adult patients undergoing durable LVAD placement, heart transplantation, or lung transplantation 2. to conduct a cost-capture analysis on the expense each drug incurs per patient.
