Pulmonary Hypertension

500

• PH due to lung disease or hypoxia: Precapillary PH associated with COPD, interstitial lung disease (ILD), or sleep-disordered breathing
  
  
• Chronic thromboembolic PH (CTEPH): Precapillary PH from persistent pulmonary artery obstruction after thromboembolism
  
  
• PH due to left heart disease: Postcapillary PH driven by elevated left-sided filling pressures from heart failure or valvular disease
  
  
• PH with unclear or multifactorial mechanisms: Includes hematologic disorders, sarcoidosis, metabolic diseases, and renal failure
  
  
• Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH): Precapillary PH (mPAP >20 mm Hg, PAWP ≤15 mm Hg, PVR >3 Wood units) due to intrinsic pulmonary vascular disease
