A Registry for the Scientific Study of Pulmonary Hypertension in the United States

Overview

Información sobre este estudio

The purpose of this study is to identify, characterize, and study a group of patients who have pulmonary hypertension, newly diagnosed in the current treatment era, when investigators can use the contributions of genomics and clinical imaging tests to further understand the disease. This registry should advance knowledge in the field both from a molecular (genomic and proteomic) and from a clinical phenotype standpoint.
