Risk stratification refinements with inclusion of haemodynamic variables at follow-up in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension

Haemodynamic variables are prognostic factors in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, right heart catheterization (RHC) is not systematically recommended to assess the risk-status during follow-up. This study aimed to assess the added value of haemodynamic variables in prevalent patients to predict the risk of death or lung transplantation according to their risk status assessed by the non-invasive 4 strata model as recommended by the European guidelines.
