STUDY QUESTION:
We investigated whether domiciliary oxygen therapy (DOXT) increases exercise capacity and quality of life in patients with pulmonary arterial or distal chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (PAH/CTEPH) presenting with mild resting hypoxaemia and exercise-induced oxygen desaturation. MATERIALS AND METHODS:
30 patients with PAH/CTEPH, mean±sd age 60±15 years, pulmonary artery pressure 39±11 mmHg, resting arterial oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry (S pO2 ) ≥90%, S pO2 drop during a 6-min walk test ≥4%
