Comparison of Contemporary Risk Scores in All Groups of Pulmonary Hypertension: A Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute GoDeep Meta-Registry Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a heterogeneous disease with a poor prognosis. Accurate risk stratification is essential for guiding treatment decisions in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Although various risk models have been developed for PAH, their comparative prognostic potential requires further exploration. Additionally, the applicability of risk scores in PH groups beyond group 1 remains to be investigated.

Research question

Are risk scores originally developed for PAH predictive in PH groups 1 through 4?

Study design and methods

We conducted a comprehensive analysis of outcomes among patients with incident PH enrolled in the multicenter worldwide Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute GoDeep meta-registry. Analyses were performed across PH grou
