Pulmonary Hypertension Association Registry
The PHA Registry (PHAR) is a national study about people who have pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). PHAR collects information from people with PAH and CTEPH who are cared for in participating PHA-accredited Pulmonary Hypertension Care Centers throughout the U.S. PHAR will determine how people …
the Application of Cardiopulmonary Exercise Testing in Assessment Outcome of Patients With Pulmonary Hypertension
cardiopulmonary exercise test evaluate patients with pulmonary hypertension before and after medical or balloon pulmonary angioplasty treatment
Identification of Multiple Pulmonary Diseases Using Volatile Organic Compounds Biomarkers in Human Exhaled Breath
The goal of this observational study is to develop an advanced expiratory algorithm model utilizing exhaled breath volatile organic compound (VOC) marker molecules. This model aims to accurately diagnose mutiple pulmonary diseases. The primary objectives it strives to accomplish are: To assess the diagnostic accuracy of an exhaled breath VOC-assisted …
Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Safety Profile of Understudied Drugs Administered to Children Per Standard of Care (POPS)
The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to …
Right Ventricle Lipid in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
The investigators propose to study the relationship between right ventricle (RV) steatosis and RV function, exercise capacity, and outcomes in humans with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and to identify potential drivers of lipid accumulation.
Quantifying 18kDa TSPO Expression in the Lung in Pulmonary Artery Hypertension (PAH)
The aim of this study is to determine whether there is an increase in the TSPO PET signal (measured with the radioligand [11C]PBR28) in the lungs of patients living with PAH relative to age matched controls. If so, TSPO PET may be a useful technique to non-invasively monitor response to …
Non-Invasive Measurements of Changes in Pulmonary Artery Pressure in Intensive Care Unit Patients Using Electrical Impedance Tomography - A Feasibility Study
To assess whether changes in electrical impedance - measured using an electrical impedance tomography (EIT) chest belt - can be used to derive changes in pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) in critically ill patients when compared to invasive gold-standard PAP measured using pulmonary artery catheter (PAC).
Natural History Study of Biomarkers in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Background High blood pressure in the lungs, known as pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), is a rare disorder. Some people have disease-associated PAH and some have PAH from an unknown cause. Researchers want to follow the natural history of all PAH patients to understand how PAH progresses in order to discover …
Risk and Resilience in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Genetically Susceptible Individuals
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe disease with a delayed diagnosis and markedly elevated mortality. High-risk populations, such as those with known genetic defects, provide a unique opportunity to determine the features of susceptibility and resilience to PAH. This proposal will fundamentally overturn the prevailing understanding of PAH by …
REgistry of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Associated With CONNECTIVE Tissue Diseases (RECONNECTIVE)
The RECONNECTIVE Registry is an observational single center study, focused on the subgroup of precapillary pulmonary hypertension related to connective tissue diseases. All patients will have hemodynamic confirmation by right heart catheterization and will be follow-up for at least 5 years from admission. All patients diagnosed with Group I Pulmonary …
