Characteristics and long‐term survival of patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension in China

This is the first multicentre prospective registry reporting baseline characteristics and estimated survival of patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) in China. A total of 593 patients with CTEPH were included. The long‐term survival rates are similar to those of patients in the international and Spanish registries. Pulmonary endarterectomy is an independent predictor of survival. See related Editorial
