- After surgeries of congenital heart pathologies with pulmonary hypertension or risk of hypertensive crisis.
- Adult respiratory distress syndrome.
- After pulmonary thromboendarterectomy performed in the cases of chronic pulmonary thromboembolism.
- Lung transplantation.
- In cases of heart transplantation with pulmonary hypertension, because of which a risk of right ventricular failure develops.
- Prevention of right ventricular failure and treatment of pulmonary hypertension in the patients suffering from heart failure with left ventricular assist device.
- The patients with heart valve pathologies, suffering from severe pulmonary hypertension, and exposed to the risk of right ventricular failure.
