A Study of Functional Class Self Report in Pulmonary Hypertension

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Pulmonary Hypertension Functional Class Self Report (PHFC-SR) ratings for a sample of subjects with pulmonary hypertension (PH).

A secondary purpose is to explore the concordance between the patient-reported PH-FC-SR and clinician-assessed World Health Organization Functional Classification (WHO-FC) measure in a sample of subjects with PH, and to assess the construct validity between the patient-reported PH-FC-SR and a patient-reported disease-specific measure and a general health-related quality of life (HRQOL) measure.
