Abstract
ABSTRACT
Background: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disease of the pulmonary vasculature leading to an increase in pulmonary vascular pressure (mean arterial pulmonary pressure ≥25 mm Hg) causing exertional dyspnoea and progressive right heart failure.
Aim of the Work: to highlight role of 6 minute walk test, echocardiography and right heart catheterization in assessment severity in Patients with Pulmonary arterial hypertension.
