Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) is a multifaceted disease and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality if untreated1. Diagnosing PH can be challenging and often delayed2. Multiple international registries included REVEAL3 and COMPERA4 have all demonstrated that diagnostic delay and suboptimal treatment prescription led poor 1 year-survival in patient with PH. In recent years, significant progress has been made in diagnosing, risk stratification, and treatment for patients with PH1. A dedicated PH service has been established in ambulatory clinic to streamline the management of these complex patients. This registry therefore aims to investigate the progression disease and its impact on the quality of life (QoL) of the patients who are managed at the dedicated PH clinic.
