Managing Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

A number of specific therapies are now available for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), and the outlook for patients with PAH has never been better. But first PAH must be differentiated from the other forms of pulmonary hypertension. In this podcast, Corinne Young, FNP-C, president of the Association of Pulmonary Advanced Practice Providers, talks with pulmonary hypertension expert Martha Kingman, FNP-C, DNP, about establishing the diagnosis of PAH, determining the subcategory of PAH, today’s approach to management, and the important role of primary care NPs and PAs in long-term follow-up. This activity is available for CE/CME credit.
