What's New in PH: Guidelines and Evidence for Improved Clinical Care

Activity Summary:
This AMA/ANCC/ACPE activity features a recorded discussion among three leading pulmonary hypertension (PH) experts and is designed to keep healthcare professionals on top of the most recent clinical findings.

This activity provides an expert discussion around the updated guidelines from the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) and European Respiratory Society (ERS) as well as research presented at both ERS and CHEST 2022. These discussions provide the latest evidence for the care of patients with pulmonary hypertension based on data released from these conferences. Additionally, this activity also discusses the array of registry databases, what information has been yielded about the demographic factors, treatment, and survival of patients, as well as their limitations, which provides real-world evidence that informs clinical practice and health policy.

Novel Therapeutic Approaches to Improve Outcomes for Patients with PAH

Activity Details

Novel Therapeutic Approaches to Improve Outcomes for Patients with PAH

Activity Summary:
Talking PAH is a webcast series that highlights the very latest clinical data in pulmonary arterial hypertension. Slides are developed and presented by leading PAH expert physicians and further reviewed and approved by the planning committee.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive and fatal lung disease of multifactorial etiology. Currently, therapies for treating pulmonary hypertension have been used alone and in combination to demonstrate improvements in quality of life and hemodynamic parameters as well as in slowing disease progression; however, beneficial effects on survival are limited. None offer a cure against PAH nor directly address the underlying cellular proliferation that leads to increased pulmonary arterial pressure, and the median survival rate remains at 61% at five years after diagnosis. Extensive research efforts have led to the emergence of innovative therapeutic approaches in PAH. This on-demand webcast focuses on several important aspects of PAH management, including a discussion of the challenges diagnosing and treating patients, clinical trial data on emerging therapeutics for the management of PAH, and a review of strategies to optimize outcomes for patients with PAH.

Conversations in PAH: Global Trends in PH Clinical Trials and Risk Assessment

Activity Details

Conversations in PAH: Global Trends in PH Clinical Trials and Risk Assessment

Activity Summary:
This AMA/ANCC/ACPE activity features a recorded discussion among three leading pulmonary hypertension (PH) experts and is designed to keep healthcare professionals on top of the most recent clinical findings.

New information is constantly being learned about the management of patients with PH. Pulmonary Hypertension Due to Interstitial Lung Disease (PH-ILD) represents a complex condition which now has a recently approved inhaled therapy to improve exercise ability. Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a rare but treatable complication of PE, which is often indistinguishable from pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). All patients with PH benefit from intensive, continuous clinical monitoring either in person or remotely to guide escalation of treatments. PH remains a disease with poor outcomes, necessitating early diagnosis and appropriate intervention. Improvements in survival and care depends on improving clinician awareness of the latest research and perspectives. This activity brings cutting-edge research to busy clinicians enabling them to readily keep abreast of emerging published research as it relates to the management of PH.

Women and Stable Ischemic Heart Disease

Activity Details

Women and Stable Ischemic Heart Disease

Activity Summary:
In the past decade, it has become increasingly clear that women and men with stable ischemic heart disease often present with different signs and symptoms. Some of these differences can reflect gender-based differences in disease pathophysiology and risks for clinical cardiovascular events, as well as the need for different diagnostic methods and treatment strategies.

These educational Mini Modules will outline the epidemiologic trends as well as the health and economic burden of SIHD in women. In addition, discussion will include gender-specific pathophysiologic factors in SIHD, diagnostic approaches, risk stratification, and management approaches in women with stable ischemic heart disease.
