Video content above is prompted by the following questions:
- What are the direct medical costs and indirect socioeconomic costs associated with managing pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), including hospitalizations, outpatient care, and impacts on patient productivity and quality of life?
- How does the overall burden of PAH, in terms of clinical outcomes and resource utilization, vary across different patient populations and health care settings? Are there any disparities that clinicians and payers should be more aware of?
New Study Evaluates Quality-of-Life Instruments for Patients With PAH
December 12th 2024A systematic review of quality-of-life tools available specifically for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) reveals that although several instruments demonstrate strong psychometric properties and reliability, significant gaps remain in these tools' validation and methodological rigor.

Nanoparticle Delivery Holds Promise for Treatment of PAH
December 8th 2024Aerosolized vascular endothelial growth factor/stromal cell-derived factor-1α (VEGFNP/SDFNP) led to a lower pulmonary arterial pressure and prevented right ventricular hypertrophy after monocrotaline (MCT) injection in rats.
