The RECONNECTIVE Registry is an observational single center study, focused on the subgroup of precapillary pulmonary hypertension related to connective tissue diseases. All patients will have hemodynamic confirmation by right heart catheterization and will be follow-up for at least 5 years from admission. All patients diagnosed with Group I Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) associated with Connective Tissue Diseases (CTD) and Group IV Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) with CTD will be included. The purpose of the registry is to learn and understand the clinical outcomes and natural history of the pulmonary arterial hypertension in this subgroup of patients to improve the medical care and treatment.
Who can take part
Inclusion criteria
