A member asked:
What is the range for normal pulmonary pressure in mmhg in echocardiography in healthy people? not in catheterization, just echocardiography.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pulmonary HTN: Elevated blood pressure in the right heart and lungs is common and results from many causes, including problems with the function of the left heart and problems with the lung's own blood vessels. Echocardiography can usually but not always make the diagnosis. An excellent review of this topic is in J Am Soc Echo 2013 by Bossone et al.
