【 摘 要 】

Pulmonary hypertension is a rather frequent pathophysiological and hemodynamic condition detectable in many clinical situations including pulmonary and cardiac diseases. Pulmonary arterial hypertension (pAH) is a specific clinical group of severe and rare diseases with similar morphological, hemodynamic and therapeutic characteristics. PAH diagnosis is confirmed by catheterization of the right heart. Special pharmacotherapy has been developed of late for PAH-oriented treatment. PAH is a progressive disease and therefore demands continuous monitoring and escalation of pharmacotherapy if therapeutic targets fail to be achieved with monotherapy. Combined treatment of PAH seems to be optimal now.
