Diagnosis• Echocardiography– Can’t adequately determine LA and PVP• Cardiopulmonary exercise testing– Distinguishes between ventilatory and cardiac cause of exercise limitations– Allows prognostic info– Non invasive– Normal values aren’t well defined– Changes in left heart filling pressures are hard to determine– Clinical significance of exercise induced PTHN not clear• Cardiac cath– Required for definitive diagnosis– Mixed venous oxygen saturation readings allow for shunt evaluation– Right heart cath to determine TPG– PCWP < 15 can r/o left sided causes– Allows assessment of response to vasodilator <strong>the</strong>rapy– Left heart cath if suspect left sided heart disease
