Summary
This study is creating a large collection of blood samples and medical information from 1000 adults with or suspected of having pulmonary hypertension (PH). Researchers hope this resource will help them find new ways to diagnose and treat PH. Participants will provide a blood sample and allow access to their medical records, with optional follow-up visits.
