Progress in the application of echocardiography in neonatal pulmonary hypertension.

Purpose: This review aims to overview the use of echocardiography in diagnosing neonatal pulmonary hypertension, assessing cardiac function, and understanding the significance and limitations of various parameters in clinical practice. Materials and methods: Advancements in echocardiography for diagnosing and assessing neonatal pulmonary hypertension, evaluating cardiac function, monitoring treatment effectiveness, and predicting prognosis are discussed. Results: Echocardiography is a pivotal tool for diagnosing and managing neonatal pulmonary hypertension. It should be used with other ultrasound parameters to confirm findings and provide comprehensive analysis for improved accuracy. Conclusion: Understanding the value of echocardiography in neonatal pulmonary hypertension diagnosis and management is crucial. Its integration with other imaging modalities enhances diagnostic accuracy and improves patient outcomes.
