Abstract: Objectives To explore the efficacy and safety of bosentan in the treatment of infants(<3 months)with congenital heart disease complicated with pulmonary hypertension(CHD-PAH). Methods A total of 60 CHD-PAH infants treated in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University and Qilu Childrens Hospital during Jan. 2012 and Dec. 2013 were selected as the observation group and subdivided into bosentan group(n=30)and captopril group(n=30), another 30 healthy infants served as the control group. Endothelin-1(ET-1)and mean pulmonary arterial pressure(mPAP)before treatment, 4 and 8 weeks after treatment were measured with ELISA and echocardiography(UCG)in all infants. Changes of liver enzymes were measured before and after the treatment, and exercise tolerance was evaluated by observing the time changes of feeding 60 mL milk for babies in the observation group. Results ET-1 and mPAP were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05). ET-1 and mPAP 4 and 8 weeks after bosentan treatment decreased significantly compared to the basement levels(P<0.01). MPAP after captopril treatment declined compared with the control group(P<0.05), while there was no statistical difference in ET-1 concentrations. ET-1 and mPAP in 山 东 大 学 学 报 (医 学 版)54卷2期 -潘艳艳,等.波生坦治疗婴儿先心病合并肺动脉高压的临床观察 \=-the bosentan treatment group decreased significantly compared with those of the captopril group 4 weeks and 8 weeks after treatment(P<0.05). There was no difference in liver enzymes before and after bosentan treatment(P>0.05). The feeding time of 60 mL milk decreased statistically 4 weeks after bosentan treatment. Conclusion Bosentan can not only effectively decrease the mean pulmonary artery pressure of infants with congenital heart disease, but also improve their exercise tolerance. Bosentan is effective and safe in the treatment of CHD-PAH infants.
