The 17 pages that link to Pulmonary hypertension, each with the reason it gives.

• EchocardiographyRelated: Doppler measurements help estimate pressure and assess right-heart effects.

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseaseRelated: Low oxygen and changes in lung blood vessels can raise pulmonary artery pressure in COPD.

• Nitric oxideRelated: Inhaled NO can selectively relax pulmonary vessels in some forms of this condition.

• Altitude sicknessRelated: Exaggerated pulmonary pressure responses contribute to lung edema, with individual variation still difficult to forecast.

• Congenital heart defectRelated: Long-standing excess pulmonary blood flow can damage lung vessels and raise pressure.

• Pulmonary embolismRelated: Large or repeated emboli can raise pulmonary vascular pressure.

• EndotheliumRelated: Pulmonary endothelial signaling and remodeling can contribute to raised vascular resistance.

• Pulmonary circulationRelated: It is a disorder of the pulmonary circuit’s pressure, not simply systemic hypertension in the lungs.

• Endothelial cellRelated: Altered endothelial signaling can promote pulmonary vessel constriction and remodeling.

• Pulmonary fibrosisRelated: It can develop as a complication of advanced fibrosis and worsen breathlessness.

• HemodynamicsRelated: Increased pulmonary vascular resistance burdens the right ventricle.

• Pulmonary rehabilitationBroader topic: Carefully supervised exercise may improve function for some people with this condition.

• Patent ductus arteriosusRelated: A large, persistent shunt can raise pulmonary pressures and eventually alter flow direction.

• High-altitude adaptationRelated: Low oxygen can constrict lung blood vessels, producing a costly response at high elevation.

• PulmonologyRelated: This vascular disorder can strain the heart and requires specialized pulmonary evaluation.

• Central hypoventilation syndromeRelated: Chronic hypoxemia can strain pulmonary vessels and the right side of the heart.

• Transposition of the Great VesselsRelated: Unrepaired abnormal flow can damage lung vessels and raise pulmonary pressure.
