Summary

Little is known about affection of small airways in patients with pulmonary hypertension as well as the ideal diagnostic approach. The investigators therefore aimed to evaluate novel or not widely used lung function tests for the evaluation of airway function in patients with PH.

Conditions

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

body plethysmography

measurement of conventional lung function parameters

impulse oscillometry

measurement of central and peripheral airway resistance

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST
