Pulmonary hypertension is said to occur when the mean pulmonary arterial pressure exceeds 25 mmHg at rest or 30 mmHg during exercise. There are many causes but the term Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is used to describe a rare group of illnesses that share histopathological similarities in the small muscularised pulmonary arterioles leading to ...
