Join an esteemed panel of international leaders as they share their approaches to bridging pediatric patients to lung transplantation. This dynamic session will feature focused presentations from each speaker, followed by interactive panel discussions of two real-world clinical cases.
To kick off the relaunch of the Women’s Health Task Force, co-chairs Jessica Badlam, University of Vermont Medical Center, and Meghan Cirulis, Intermountain Health Intermountain Medical Center, have put together a dedicated webinar exploring the intersection of women’s health and pulmonary vascular disease. The session will feature expert scientific presentations and open discussion, with time set aside to introduce the Task Force’s renewed objectives and future goals.
Part of the 'Hypoxia in pulmonary vascular research – altitude and beyond' webinar series by the High Altitude Task Force, who raise awareness and understanding of PH linked to high altitude and organise scientific conferences in regions affected by high altitudes.
PH-ILD carries a poor prognosis, particularly with PVR > 5 WU. The INCREASE trial demonstrated the successful use of inhaled treprostinil, but slow uptitration delays the effects. Our study suggests outpatient IV dobutamine as interim support, improving contractility and reducing PVR during uptitration.
Hypopituitarism has been reported in patients receiving continuous infusions of prostaglandin I2 (PGI2) analogues for pulmonary hypertension (PH). However, these patients' clinical characteristics, treatment, and prognoses remain unclear. This retrospective multicentre study included 22 patients who developed hypopituitarism while on continuous PGI2 analogue infusion between 1999 and 2021.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a life-threatening condition frequently associated with exertional dyspnea. It remains diagnostically challenging due to limitations in current screening modalities. While the 6-min walk test (6MWT) has been applied for risk stratification in confirmed PH, its potential role in screening remains unexplored.
We’re thrilled to announce a new chapter in the leadership of PVRI’s Innovative Drug Discovery Initiative (IDDI). We warmly welcome industry reps, Gil Golden (UTC) and Sidra Hoffman (Gossamer Bio), to the IDDI Leadership Team. They’ll be joining Sandeep Sahay and Luke Howard, who remain on as IDDI Leaders.
Your feedback is needed on our work groups and subject areas...We’re reviewing some of our IDDI Workstream activity, and we need you to help us shape the future agenda.
We’re pleased to share that the Pulmonary Hypertension Global Patient Survey (PHGPS) - a key project of the IDDI Patient Engagement & Empowerment (PE&E) Workstream - is now a stand-alone Task Force.
The PVRI 2025 Annual Congress was hosted in the vibrant city of Rio de Janeiro at the Windsor Convention & Expo Centre.
