CTEPH is defined as PH in the presence of an organized thrombus within the pulmonary vascular bed that persists at least 3 months after the onset of anticoagulant therapy. The most commonly reported symptoms of CTEPH include exercise intolerance, fatigue, and dyspnea. Symptoms experienced by CTEPH patients are non-specific and often similar to those of other more common diseases, so CTEPH is under diagnosed and often misdiagnosed as another disease. CTEPH is potentially curable only with pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) surgery, which is the treatment choice for patients who are surgical candidates. For patients who are not surgical candidates or who have persistent/recurrent CTEPH after PEA surgery, there is an approved medical therapy or percutaneous balloon pulmonary angioplasty (BPA). This slide kit covers diagnosis and emerging treatment strategies including sequencing and combination therapy.
