We are pulmonary hypertension professionals united in our vision for a world without pulmonary vascular disease. We believe we can achieve this together, and we won’t stop until we do.
PVRI 2025 Rio: Embracing Heterogeneity
Our PVRI 2025 Annual Congress 'PVRI 2025 Rio: Embracing Heterogeneity' will be hosted in the vibrant and captivating city of Rio de Janeiro. Taking place 29 January - 1 February 2025, register your place today.
New for our Annual Congress, we will be hosting a Career Catalyst Luncheon to support early career professionals and trainees to connect with globally renowned senior and mid-career PH professionals in a welcoming and informal setting.
Whether you’re a pulmonary hypertension specialist, a pharmaceutical or industry colleague, a regulator, a patient, or a caregiver, joining our growing global family means you share our vision to reduce the global burden of pulmonary vascular disease.
We are excited to announce that registrations are now open for the PVRI Drug Discovery and Development Symposium 2025! #DDDS2025 will be taking place 16-17 June 2025 in Amsterdam. See our event page for more details and register your place!
Indian National PH Symposium will be taking place Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 December 2024. PVRI is delighted to support our successful PVRI India group in running what we know will be another successful scientific meeting. We look forward to meeting faculty, patients and industry supporters in Mumbai in December.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a frequent complication of chronic lung disease (CLD). However, PH is difficult to diagnose early since accompanying symptoms overlap and are similar to those of the underlying CLD. In most cases the PH is mild to moderate and therefore physical signs may be absent or subtle.
Overnight inpatient monitoring is common following balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA) for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). We describe our institutional experience in same-day discharge (SDD) after BPA. Across 78 BPA sessions, there were only 2 (2.6%) admissions for hemoptysis with no reperfusion lung injury or deaths at 30 days.
Many patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease (CTEPD) suffer from exertional dyspnea. It is unclear if CTEPD is associated with exercise pulmonary hypertension (ePH). This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the occurrence of ePH in patients with CTEPD and to identify the haemodynamic changes during exercise.
We are excited to announce that registrations are now open for the PVRI Drug Discovery and Development Symposium 2025! #DDDS2025 will be taking place 16-17 June 2025 in Amsterdam and promises to be an excellent opportunity for regulatory, industry, and academic bodies to meet and discuss the latest drug developments in PH.
On 27 September 2024, phase 1 of the Pulmonary Hypertension Global Patient Survey (PH GPS) closed. The survey was first launched in October 2023 to help clinicians better understand the impacts of PH on patients.
This World Heart Day, PVRI supports the WHF campaign calling for increased awareness, better healthcare policies and more funding for heart health research.
