- Ventricular septal defect
Class 1: Pulmonary Aterial Hypertension
- Idiopathic PAH
- Heritable( BMPR2,ALK-1,Endogin...)
- Drug and toxin induced.
- Connective tissue diseases
- HIV
- Portal Hypertension
- Congenital heart diseases
- Schistosomiasis
- Chronic hemolytic anemia.
- Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the newborn
Class 2: Pulmonary Venous Hypertension or pulmonary hypertension owing to left heart disease
- Systolic Dysfunction.
- Diastolic dysfunction.
- Valvular disease.
Class 2: Pulmonary Hypertension associated with disorders of the respiratory system and/or Hypoxemia
- Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease.
- Interstitial Lung Disease
- Pulmonary diseases with mixed restrictive and obstructive patterns.
- Obstructive sleep apnea.
- High Altitude(chronically).
- Developmental abnormalities.
Class 4: Pulmonary Hypertension due to chronic thrombotic and/or embolic disease
Class 5: Pulmonary Hypertension due to disorders directly affecting the pulmonary vasculature
- Hematologic disorders: Myeloproliferative disorders,splenectomy,polycythemia vera.
- Systemic disorders: Sarcoidosis,Langerhan cell Histiocytosis, Neurofibromatosis, Vasculitis.
- Metabolic disorders: Glycogen storage diseases, Gaucher disease, Thyroid disorders.
- Miscellaneous: Tumor obstruction, Fibrosing mediastinitis, chronic renal failure on dialysis.
