Validity of the ESC Risk Assessment in Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in China

Background: The 2015 European pulmonary hypertension (PH) guidelines recommend a risk stratification strategy for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). We aimed to investigate the validation and potential prognostic information in Chinese patients.Methods: The risk assessment variables proposed by...
