Abstract
Рulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication of left heart diseases. In addition to a passive increase of pressure in the venous bed of the pulmonary circulation, leading to an increase of mean pulmonary pressure, signs of precapillary PH could be detected in some patients. Since 2013, a hemodynamic subtype of PH due to left heart diseases combined post/precapillary PH has been identified, with a more unfavorable prognosis and high mortality.
