Summaries for Pulmonary Hypertension

About this section
MedlinePlus : 42 Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is high blood pressure in the arteries to your lungs. It is a serious condition. If you have it, the blood vessels that carry blood from your heart to your lungs become hard and narrow. Your heart has to work harder to pump the blood through. Over time, your heart weakens and cannot do its job and you can develop heart failure. Symptoms of PH include Shortness of breath during routine activity, such as climbing two flights of stairs Tiredness Chest pain A racing heartbeat Pain on the upper right side of the abdomen Decreased appetite As PH worsens, you may find it hard to do any physical activities. There are two main kinds of PH. One runs in families or appears for no known reason. The other kind is related to another condition, usually heart or lung disease. There is no cure for PH. Treatments can control symptoms. They involve treating the heart or lung disease, medicines, oxygen, and sometimes lung transplantation. NIH: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute

MalaCards based summary : Pulmonary Hypertension, also known as primary pulmonary hypertension, is related to pulmonary hypertension, primary, 1 and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension, and has symptoms including dyspnea, edema and chest pain. An important gene associated with Pulmonary Hypertension is MIR17 (MicroRNA 17), and among its related pathways/superpathways are nNOS Signaling in Skeletal Muscle and MicroRNAs in cancer. The drugs Iloprost and Angiotensin II have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include Lung, heart and endothelial, and related phenotype is normal.

Disease Ontology : 12 A hypertension characterized by an increase of blood pressure in the pulmonary artery, pulmonary vein or pulmonary capillaries.

CDC : 3 Pulmonary hypertension occurs when the pressure in the blood vessels leading from the heart to the lungs is too high. The heart pumps blood from the right ventricle to the lungs to get oxygen. Because the blood does not have to travel very far, the pressure in this side of the heart and in the artery taking blood from the right ventricle to the lungs is normally low-normally much lower than systolic or diastolic blood pressure. When the pressure in this artery gets too high, the arteries in the lungs can narrow and then the blood does not flow as well as it should resulting in less oxygen in the blood

PubMed Health : 62 About pulmonary hypertension: Pulmonary hypertension (PULL-mun-ary HI-per-TEN-shun), or PH, is increased pressure in the pulmonary arteries. These arteries carry blood from your heart to your lungs to pick up oxygen. PH causes symptoms such as shortness of breath during routine activity (for example, climbing two flights of stairs), tiredness, chest pain, and a racing heartbeat. As the condition worsens, its symptoms may limit all physical activity.

Drugs & Therapeutics for Pulmonary Hypertension

About this section

PubMed Health treatment related to Pulmonary Hypertension: 62

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) has no cure. However, treatment may help relieve symptoms and slow the progress of the disease. PH is treated with medicines, procedures, and other therapies . Treatment will depend on what type of PH you have and its severity. (For more information, go to "Types of Pulmonary Hypertension." )
