Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Some patients with hypoxaemia reveal "out of proportion" pulmonary hypertension with inappropriate increase of pulmonary artery pressure.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The main characteristic of PH in CRD and particularly in COPD is its mild to moderate degree, resting pulmonary artery mean pressure (PAP) in a stable state of the disease[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
COPD also increases your risk of developing pulmonary hypertension, which is high blood pressure in the arteries that serve the lungs.[healthline.com]
Pulmonary Edema
Systolic pulmonary artery pressure increased at high altitude, but normalised with sildenafil.[doi.org]
[…] left ventricular failure Increased pulmonary capillary pressure secondary to increased pulmonary arterial pressure (so-called overperfusion pulmonary edema) Decreased plasma[aafp.org]
Enhancing pulmonary circulation with sildenafil safely protects against the high altitude-induced PH and improves gas exchange.[doi.org]
Cor Pulmonale
Indeed, from a pathophysiologic and clinical standpoint, any disease in which pulmonary arterial pressures increase sufficiently to affect right ventricular function results[accessmedicine.mhmedical.com]
An oxygen saturation of less than 85% usually causes pulmonary arterial pressure to increase above 25 mm Hg. Acidosis and exercise cause further elevations. 4.[rjoson.tripod.com]
[…] in afterload, the rv increases systolic pressure to keep the gradient. at a point, a further increase in the degree of pulmonary arterial pressure produces significant rv[allnurses.com]
Pulmonary Embolism
Echocardiography revealed a large thrombus trapped in a PFO with increased pulmonary artery pressure, which is a very rare and critical condition.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
He has been living well without dyspnea and the echocardiography showed the normalizations of the once increased pulmonary arterial pressure and the once enlarged right ventricle[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
This damage may lead to pulmonary hypertension (increased pressure in the pulmonary arteries). Cause low oxygen levels in your blood.[web.archive.org]
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
There was no effect on mean pulmonary arterial pressure. Patients receiving nitric oxide had an increased risk of developing renal dysfunction (1.50, 1.11 to 2.02).[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
[…] desaturation resistant to high concentrations of inhaled 0 2 • Pulmonary function tests showing increased pulmonary vascular pressures and resistances and decreased compliance[learningradiology.com]

Atrial Septal Defect
The heart can dilate, the muscle can become weak, and the pressures in the pulmonary arteries can increase (pulmonary hypertension) due to the increase in blood flow.[heartpoint.com]
If a large atrial septal defect goes untreated, increased blood flow to your lungs increases the blood pressure in the lung arteries (pulmonary hypertension).[mayoclinic.org]
Over time, too much blood flow to the lungs can increase the pressure in the pulmonary arteries (blood vessels leading from the heart to the lungs).[saintlukeskc.org]
Hypoxia
Pulmonary hypertension adversely affects survival in COPD, to an extent that parallels the degree to which resting mean pulmonary artery pressure is elevated.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The gold standard for the diagnosis of PH is right-sided cardiac catheterization, with PH being defined as a mean pulmonary arterial pressure 25 mm Hg at rest. 59 An increased[bloodjournal.org]
Although the severity of airflow obstruction as measured by FEV1 is the best correlate with overall prognosis in patients with COPD, chronic hypoxemia increases mortality[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Pulmonary Infarction
The higher pressure of the bronchial arteries , in combination with locally increased vascular permeability and capillary endothelial injury, is thought to result in local[radiopaedia.org]
Under such condition, when branch of pulmonary artery is blocked, force of the bronchial arteries is insufficient to supply the obstructed area due to increased pulmonary[histopathology-india.net]
In cases in which the pulmonary embolus is large, a sudden increase in pulmonary artery pressure may lead to right ventricular strain and right heart failure.[emedicine.medscape.com]
Recurrent Pulmonary Embolism
Pulmonary arterial pressure and central venous pressure were increased at 63/33 mmHg and 40 mmHg, respectively. ETco 2 was not recordable.[anesthesiology.pubs.asahq.org]
After thrombolysis, systolic pressure in the pulmonary artery decreased to 50 mmHg and arterial saturation in oxygen increased to 96%.[tmj.ro]
A loud 2nd heart sound (S2) due to a loud pulmonic component (P2) is possible but uncommon in acute PE because increases in pulmonary artery pressures. are only modest.[merckmanuals.com]
Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an increase in pulmonary arterial pressure secondary to narrowing and obliteration of the lumen of the lung vessels resulting in an increased[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Signs and symptoms of pulmonary arterial hypertension occur when increased blood pressure cannot fully overcome the elevated resistance.[web.archive.org]
