(* 8CME@YALE.EDU WWW.CME.YALE.EDU203.785.4578

Yale West Campus Conference CenterOrange, Connecticut

A one-day meeting designed, by Dr. Aaron Waxman of Harvard and Dr. Inderjit Singh of Yale, to educate physicians and other health care providers on advances in the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary hypertension.

Learning Objectives

This course will enable participants to:

~ Distinguish between the different management strategies for patients with acute pulmonary heart disease

~ Recognize the limitations of pulmonary arterial hypertension specific therapies in managing patients with left heart disease

~ Describe the different pathway specific therapies currently available to treat pulmonary arterial hypertension

~ Discuss the different advanced management strategies for patients with pulmonary embolism

2:30 pm Adjourn

Despite therapeutic advances, the prognosis of pulmonary hypertension remains poor which likely reflects in part delayed detection of the disease and scarcity of disease modifying therapies currently available. The former is important especially amongst health care providers given the myriad of conditions that can result in pulmonary hypertension, including chronic liver disease, left heart disease, and connective tissue disease. Early recognition of the pulmonary hypertension and recognizing the indication & limitations of current pulmonary artery hypertension-specific therapies are important to allow for prompt and appropriate treatment strategies. Knowledge on the peri-operative, acute, and chronic management strategies of patients with pulmonary hypertension are important for health care providers to understand the complexity of managing patients with pulmonary hypertension.
