Effect of acetazolamide on pulmonary vascular haemodynamics in patients with COPD going to altitude: a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial

BACKGROUND: COPD may predispose to symptomatic pulmonary hypertension at high altitude. We investigated haemodynamic changes in lowlanders with COPD ascending to 3100 m and evaluated whether preventive acetazolamide treatment would attenuate the altitude-induced increase in pulmonary artery pressure...
