Abstract
Integrating routine mental health support in pulmonary hypertension care is not just a matter of efficiency but also of recognition, equity, and epistemic justice. We provide evidence supporting the Generalised Anxiety Disorder-2 questionnaire and the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 as practical, psychometrically sound, and low-burden entry points for screening anxiety and depression.
