Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and RV Failure
The average time from symptom onset to accurate diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is 2.8 years, and more than half of patients have already progressed to functional class 3 or 4 by the time of diagnosis. Overlapping symptoms and clinical presentations can make it challenging to classify pulmonary hypertension patients correctly.
