<br/><br/> In bronchial asthma, recurrent exposure to hypoxemia leads to sustained pulmonary vasoconstriction and narrowing of the pulmonary vasculature. Consequently, pulmonary hypertension develops leading to right heart enlargement with ventricular hypertrophy, and impaired cardiac function. Diastolic dysfunction of the right ventricle is the earliest hemodynamic change in bronchial asthma
