Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -In healthy individuals who undergo right heart catheterisation, the average pulmonary artery systolic pressure ranges from 17 mm Hg to 25 mm Hg; on echocardiography, estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure of more than 30 mm Hg is outside the normal range for most healthy individuals.
Detailed explanation-2: -Normal pulmonary artery pressure is 15 to 28 mmHg during systole and 5 to 16 mmHg during diastole. Right ventricular (RV) pressures range from 15 to 28 mmHg during systole and 0 to 8 mmHg during diastole.
