Summary

This study aims to find out how often people develop a serious lung condition called chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) after having a blood clot in the lungs. Researchers will use heart ultrasound to look for early signs of heart strain. The goal is to better predict who is at risk, so they can be treated sooner. The study will include 100 adults who had a moderate to severe blood clot in the lungs.
