Euphylline Test

Eufillin is a medicine used to treat various diseases, such as bronchial asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia and others. However, aminophylline also has the property of reducing high pressure in the lungs and reducing the load on the right atrium and right ventricle of the heart. This property of aminophylline is used to determine the degree of hypertension of the pulmonary circulation.

Eufillin is introduced into the body through the blood or by inhalation. After aminophylline is introduced into the body, it begins to quickly spread through the circulatory system, reaching the lungs. In the lungs, aminophylline binds to the proteins of the alveoli, which leads to a decrease in pressure in the pulmonary artery and a decrease in the load on the right ventricle.

To conduct an aminophylline test, the patient is injected with aminophylline into the blood and then the pressure in the pulmonary artery is measured using a sphygmomanometer. If the pressure in the pulmonary artery decreases after the administration of aminophylline, this indicates the presence of pulmonary hypertension.

The results of the aminophylline test can be used for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertension of minor bleeding. In addition, the test results can help determine the degree of hypertension and choose the most effective treatment method.

Thus, the euffillary test is an important method for diagnosing pulmonary hypertension and can help choose the most effective therapy.

Introduction:

Euphylline tests are an important diagnostic tool for determining the severity of hypertension in the pulmonary circulation. The method is based on reducing pressure in the pulmonary artery by administering the drug. This test allows you to assess the condition of the cardiovascular system and determine the need for further treatment.

Description of the method:

To carry out the test, the drug aminophylline (or its analogues) is used, which is administered intravenously. It has a vasodilating effect and reduces pressure in the pulmonary circulation. The pressure reduction is carried out over a certain period of time and is assessed by the change in blood pressure at the patient's base. If the pressure decreases by more than 8 mm Hg. Art., then the test is considered positive. Based on this, a decision is made
