Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) – is a pathophysiological condition, which characterized by pressure elevation in pulmonary vascular bed without regard to its causes. Despite the great progress in understanding of etiology, pathophysiology and molecular mechanisms of PH, clinical diagnosis is still a great challenge for the medical practitioner. Lack of specific symptoms, demand of wide range of knowledge, necessity of well-equipped hospital – all these reasons lead to late diagnosis and treatment. In this article we provide brief information of clinical evaluation in case of PH and transthoracic echocardiography as a first step of instrumental examination towards precise diagnosis. .
