[Does "pulmogenic hypertension" exist?].
Validity of criteria of so called "pulmogenic hypertension" in chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases was assessed with the use of a questionnaire and simultaneous 24 hour monitoring of blood pressure and peak expiratory rate in 80 and 28 patients, respectively. This method of bifunctional monitoring allowed to study relationship between blood pressure level and degree of bronchial obstruction. The results did not confirm the presence of "pulmogenic hypertension" as a special form of arterial hypertension.
