Overview
Tab Title Description
Study type
ObservationalDescribes the nature of a clinical study. Types include:
- Observational study — observes people and measures outcomes without affecting results.
- Interventional study (clinical trial) — studies new tests, treatments, drugs, surgical procedures or devices.
- Medical records research — uses historical information collected from medical records of large groups of people to study how diseases progress and which treatments and surgeries work best.

About this study
The purpose of the United States Pulmonary Hypertension Scientific Registry (USPHSR) will be to promote a greater understanding of PAH in an era of genetic discoveries, the study of the physical make up of individual people, and new treatments through education and collaborative assessment of information among pulmonary hypertension (PH) centers throughout the U.S. The development of a national USPHSR Registry will be an important element for advancement of the understanding of PAH and improvement of the care of patients who suffer from this life threatening disorder.
