The challenge for the clinician is to detect and diagnose pulmonary artery hypertension early, when treatment can be most beneficial. This can be done only if the clinician looks for pulmonary hypertension and confirms the diagnosis through history taking, physical examination, and electrocardiographic and chest roentgenographic evaluation.
临床医生面临的挑战是在治疗最有益时尽早检测和诊断肺动脉高压。只有当临床医生寻找肺动脉高压并通过病史采集、体格检查、心电图和胸部X线评估来确诊时,才能做到这一点。
