Despite significant advancements in the management of pulmonary hypertension (PH), several unmet needs remain. Patients continue to face challenges related to symptom control, mental health, and the long-term impacts of both the disease and its treatments. Additionally, there is a critical need for improved global access to care, multidimensional support, and advocacy. In this podcast episode, Dr. Jean Elwing and Dr. Oksana Shlobin discuss these gaps by focusing on the latest updates from the 7th World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension (WSPH), offering insights into the latest clinical classifications, risk stratifications, and treatment strategies.

This podcast aims to enhance clinical practice by presenting key research findings, new treatment algorithms, and the implications of emerging therapies. The discussion will include advances in multimodality imaging, genetics, and right ventricular function, highlighting how these innovations improve PH diagnosis and patient management. Through an expert-led presentation and interactive Q&A session, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of how these developments will shape future research and personalized care for PH patients.
