Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Guidelines summarize and evaluate evidence and should facilitate decision-making for health professionals. Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a pathophysiological disorder that may involve multiple clinical conditions and be associated with a variety of cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. The management of PH patients is complex, requiring a multifaceted, holistic, and multidisciplinary approach. Still, there are some unanswered topics that should be discussed, including the following:

  • New hemodynamic definition of PH and its clinical implications.
  • How can we detect PH earlier?
  • What is new in the treatment algorithm of PH?
  • How do we treat PH associated with left heart disease (PH-LHD)?
  • CTEPH: ways to cure PH.
  • How do we treat PH due to lung disease/hypoxia?
  • Pregnancy and PAH.
  • New standards.
