Details and patient eligibility

About

The BNP-PL is a multicenter, observational study in which patients are prospectively followed in order to investigate clinical course and management of pulmonary hypertension in Poland.

All patients diagnosed with pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension confirmed in right heart catheterization, will be eligible to participate in the study.

Full description

The BNP-PL Registry is an initiative of the Polish Cardiac Society Task Force for Pulmonary Vascular Diseases This study is conducted by the Polish Cardiac Society. All centers of pulmonary hypertension in Poland which are accredited by the National Health Fund have been invited to join the study. The data is administrated by the Jagiellonian University Medical College on the basis of an agreement between the Polish Cardiac Society, Jagiellonian University Medical College and pulmonary hypertension centres.

The goal is to describe current practice and outcomes in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension.

The data collection will have no impact on the way the patient is diagnosed and treated.

Collection of data on patients with pulmonary hypertension is carried out via the electronic platform.

No personal data is entered into the project database.
