Recent international guidelines recommend a multidisciplinary evaluation and care model for patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), but there is a paucity of supporting data. The aim of this study was to describe the outcomes of a multidisciplinary team approach to the comprehensive care of CTEPH patients.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is defined hemodynamically as a mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) ≥ 20 mmHg, measured at right heart catheterization (RHC). Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is defined as a mPAP ≥ 20 mmHg with a pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) or left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) of ≤ 15 mmHg and a pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) > 2 Woods Units (WU).
