What Causes Elevated Values Of RVSP As Seen In ECHO?

On ECHO my RVSP has repeatedly been elevated (27, 30, 32 mmHg). Was started on Adcirca due to clinical context and comorbid conditions. About two months after had angio, PA at 23mmHg (ON Adcirca taken that morning.) Is this actually normal on its own, or is it WNL because of the Adcirca doing its job ?
