SUMMARY
Exercise-induced pulmonary hypertension (EIPH) has been defined as an exaggerated increase in mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) >30 mmHg and total pulmonary resistance (TPR) > 3 Wood units during exercise, while an mPAP and amp;lt;25 mmHg is present at rest. Past evidence has shown the relationship between exercise-induced elevation of pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) with exercise intolerance and exertional dyspnea in patients without established diagnosis of pulmonary hypertensions (PH), underlining its clinical importance. Other non-invasive, objective, reproducible and easily performed diagnostic methods of EIPH assessment are required in clinical practice . . .
