A recent study showed that a single oral administration of sildenafil at the beginning of the cardiac intervention in patients undergoing valvular heart surgery complicated by pulmonary hypertension reduces pulmonary vascular resistances without inducing significant effects on systemic vascular resistances. The present study wants to test the hypothesis that intravenous administration of sildenafil reduces pulmonary vascular resistances and afterload of the right ventricle avoiding right ventricular failure.
