Special Situations in Pulmonary Hypertension: Pregnancy and Right Ventricular Failure.

In patients with acutely decompensated RV failure, an aggressive and multifaceted approach must be used; a thorough search for triggering factors for the decompensation is a key part of the successful management strategy.
