Low Prevalence

Screening programmes for pulmonary hypertension are justifiable in some circumstances but not others. The inherent inaccuracies of the diagnostic tools and the low prevalence of pulmonary hypertension renders screening programmes ineffective unless the population evaluated with the primary screening tool (echocardiography) can be enriched. At the recent World Symposium of Pulmonary Hypertension screening programmes were recommended in asymptomatic systemic sclerosis, BMPR2 mutation carriers, patients with portal hypertension, and some groups with HIV, hereditary telangiectasis(HHT) or mutation carriers for HHT and congenital heart disease.
