Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Children and adolescents diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension before age 18 who can provide informed consent/assent and are able to attend longitudinal follow-up at participating centers.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without a confirmed PH diagnosis, adults, or those unable to provide consent or commit to follow-up are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies
INSPIRE-PH is a multicenter, observational real-world registry that systematically collects longitudinal clinical and outcome data on children and adolescents diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension. Enrolled patients receive standard care from their treating physicians and no study-mandated interventions are imposed. The registry captures diagnostic, hemodynamic, treatment, and follow-up information to characterize disease course, treatment patterns, and prognosis over time. The cohort began prospectively in 2006 and cases have been reclassified according to contemporary World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension criteria to enable longitudinal comparisons.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the registry could improve understanding of pediatric PH progression and help refine risk scores and treatment approaches tailored to children.
How similar studies have gone: Other pediatric PH registries (for example TOPP and elements of REVEAL) have produced valuable natural-history and risk-stratification data, but pediatric therapeutic evidence remains limited.
