The PAH Initiative’s Disease State Curriculum

Foundational education for healthcare professionals new to PAH

The PAH Initiative has worked with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) clinicians to develop a self-guided, self-paced PAH Disease State Curriculum for healthcare professionals who want to learn more about PAH. Fundamental disease state information is presented in interactive modules that incorporate clinical insights, knowledge check questions, and more.

This curriculum allows learners to view and interact with content to best meet their needs—whether it’s to complete all modules over time or review a single module or topic as a refresher.
