Key result
Noninvasive risk stratification at first follow-up accurately identifies PAH patients with an excellent prognosis.
Why the study?
Risk stratification methods for pulmonary arterial hypertension need accurate identification of patients with excellent prognosis based on noninvasive criteria at first follow-up.
Does risk stratification based on noninvasive low-risk criteria accurately identify pulmonary arterial hypertension patients with excellent prognosis?
Does risk stratification based on noninvasive low-risk criteria accurately identify pulmonary arterial hypertension patients with excellent prognosis?
Noninvasive low-risk criteria at first follow-up can accurately identify patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension who have an excellent prognosis.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May refine noninvasive PAH follow-up risk assessment; leaves open prospective validation against invasive strategies.
