Professor Sheila Glennis Haworth Memorial Symposium on Paediatric PH

22 May 2022

A PVRI 2022 Digital webinar

Presentations

  • Genetics of pulmonary arterial hypertension: What we can learn by studying children with and without congenital heart disease, Wendy Chung
  • Therapeutic options in advanced PVD: Potts shunt versus lung transplantation, Mark Grady
  • Stem cells and Regenerative Medicine for Neonatal Lung Disease: implications for COPD, Bernard Thebaud
  • Assessment of operability in patients with congenital heart disease and PAH: Fallacies and pitfalls, Erika B. Rosenzweig
  • The impact of chronic pulmonary hypertension on ventricular function in extremely premature infants, Gabriela de Carvalho Nunes
  • Improving guidance for the correctability of congenital cardiovascular shunts with increased pulmonary vascular resistance, Ronald Day

Poll

Start of webinar poll

1. Talk 1: BMPR2 mutations can be found in patients with pulmonary hypertension with our without congenital heart disease

True - 100%

False - 0%

 

2. Talk 2: Long term outcomes for children undergoing a Potts shunt are comparable to lung transplantation?

Agree - 57%

Disagree - 43%

 

3. Talk 3: Is there such thing as a “vascular phenotype” in BPD?

Yes - 86%

No - 14%

 

4. Talk 4: Once you identify as congenital systemic to pulmonary shunt in a patient with pulmonary hypertension, you should immediately close

Yes - 21%

No - 79%

 

5. Talk 5: Do you think that all extreme premature infants with any degree of bronchopulmonary dysplasia should be screened for pulmonary hypertension at term?

Yes - 93%

No - 7%

 

6. Talk 6: Acute vasodilator testing with oxygen and inhaled nitric oxide should be used when using a preoperative hemodynamic evaluation to determine the correctability of a cardiovascular shunt.

Agree - 93%

Disagree - 7%
