Summary

This study checks if a 2-minute step test works as well as the standard 6-minute walk test for people with pulmonary hypertension. About 35 adults will do both tests while wearing a portable device that measures oxygen use and heart rate. The goal is to see if the shorter, simpler step test can reliably measure functional capacity.
