ХОБЛ определяют как заболевание, характеризующееся ограничением воздушного потока, которое не полностью обратимо; ограничение воздушного потока обычно прогрессирует и связано с патологическим воспалительным ответом дыхательных путей на повреждающие частицы или газы . Легочная гипертензия (ЛГ) и ее прямое следствие – хроническое легочное сердце – являются наиболее частыми и прогностически неблагоприятными осложнениями ХОБЛ.Медикаментозная терапия при вторичных ЛГ должна быть направлена прежде всего на терапию основного заболевания, т.е. в данном случае у больных ХОБЛ необходимо использовать в полном объеме все средства для максимального улучшения бронхиальной проходимости, контроля за воспалением дыхательных путей и оптимизации показателей газообмена.В течение последних лет появились несколько перспективных препаратов, эффективность которых уже доказана у больных с первичной ЛГ. К числу таких препаратов относятся аналоги простациклина (илопрост, трепростенил, беропрост), антагонисты рецепторов эндотелина (бозентан).С учетом значительного повышения у больных ХОБЛ уровня эндотелина в крови, существуют теоретические предпосылки для использования антагонистов рецепторов эндотелина при ЛГ у данных больных.</p></abstract></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Diseases (GOLD).
