Adjectival Hyphens
error

"pre-capillary pulmonary hypertension"

Line 34:8 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'pre-capillary'.

"post-capillary pulmonary hypertension secondary to left-sided heart disease"

Line 35:8 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'post-capillary'.

"Catheterisation can differentiate pre-capillary from post-capillary pulmonary hypertension and assess pulmonary vascular resistance. In patients with severe tricuspid regurgitation, invasive assessment may be particularly useful because echocardiographic estimation of pulmonary pressures can be inaccurate 1."

Line 147:38 · Only use medical adjectival hyphens where the letters at the end and start of the compound word are the same, e.g. post-transplant. In this case, don't use the hyphen: 'pre-capillary'.

"Acute severe right heart failure may also result in hypotension, tachycardia, cool peripheries, oliguria and other features of reduced cardiac output 3."

Line 25:87 · Use the Oxford comma in 'peripheries, oliguria and other'.

"Increasing right atrial and systemic venous pressures result in systemic venous congestion, including passive hepatic congestion, renal and splanchnic congestion, ascites and peripheral oedema. Through ventricular interdependence, right ventricular dilatation and raised filling pressures can compromise left ventricular preload and therefore reduce systemic cardiac output 1,2."

Line 67:122 · Use the Oxford comma in 'congestion, renal and splanchnic'.
