Pulmonary HTN,: hypertension, is classified into 5 groups: idiopathic/ genetic/drug induced pulmonary arterial HTN; pulm HTN caused by left-sided heart disease (including valve disease); lung disease (COPD, pulm scarring, sleep apnea); caused by chronic pulmonary emboli (blood clots);other.Exercise doesn't worsen pulm HTN, but the disease often limits exercise capacity including stair climbing.
