Clinical characteristics and survival of systemic sclerosis patients with pulmonary hypertension and elevated wedge pressure: Observations from the PHAROS cohort.

Outcomes were similar between SSc patients with post-capillary PH and combined pre- and post-capillary PH. 6MWD at baseline can predict risk for death in SSc patients with PH and an elevated PAWP. More patients with combined PH were started on PH-specific medications, and the clinical benefit of treating this subgroup specifically in SSc patients needs further exploration.
