          Abstract

          Com o advento de novas terapias para o tratamento da hipertensão arterial pulmonar, surge a necessidade de se definir marcadores prognósticos que, em última análise, reflitam a melhora da qualidade de vida e da sobrevida dos pacientes frente a essas novas opções terapêuticas. Até o momento, o teste de caminhada de seis minutos foi o principal marcador utilizado para a definição do benefício das terapias disponíveis. Porém, marcadores clínicos, de qualidade de vida e biológicos apresentam grande potencial para o manuseio dos pacientes portadores de hipertensão pulmonar.

          Translated abstract

          With the advent of new therapies for pulmonary hypertension, the need arises to define prognostic markers that definitively predict the improvement in quality of life and survival of patients treated with these new alternatives. To date, the 6-minute walk test has been the marker most widely used to determine the benefit gained from the various treatment strategies available. However, clinical, biochemical and quality of life markers present great potential for the management of patients with pulmonary hypertension.
