Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Detection of the causes of pulmonary hypertension in patients attending Sohag university hospitalone year

We will diagnose the cause of pulmonary hypertension in each participant. This will be done by following the diagnostic algorithm of European Society of Cardiology/ European Respiratory Society (ESC/ERS) 2015 guidelines (e.g. we will exclude that pulmonary hypertension is secondary to pulmonary disease by performing adequate assessment of the patient medical history and clinical examination, performing chest x-ray and or high resolution CT chest, spirometry...), so we will know the pattern of pulmonary hypertension etiology in patients attending of Sohag university hospital
