This webinar will provide an update on the management of pulmonary hypertension, from the perspective of three different specialties: respiratory medicine, cardiology and cardiothoracic surgery. A world-leading expert in pulmonary hypertension from each specialty will discuss the role of their specialty in the management of these patients. Delegates will understand the place each specialty has in the care of patients with pulmonary hypertension, and the important interactions between these specialties.
The key learning objectives will be as follows:
A CPD certificate with CPD credit will be issued to those joining each webinar live and will be automatically issued after 7 days to those who watched the webinar live in its entirety. Those who watch the webinar on-demand will receive a CPD certificate 30 days after the webinar has gone live.
