Incidence of Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension after Pulmonary Embolism

Key Points

• The aim is to understand the incidence and implications of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension following pulmonary embolism.
• Analyzed cases of pulmonary embolism for subsequent CTPH development
• Reviewed current diagnostic and therapeutic options
• Identified gaps in early detection methods
• Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension commonly occurs after pulmonary embolism
• Currently available diagnostic and therapeutic strategies are insufficient for early detection
• Highlighting a crucial need for improved interventions to prevent CTPH
