CF Alumni: College of Nursing Alumni Continuing Education Dinner

Wednesday, October 1, 2014 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
The UCF Alumni Association and the College of Nursing invite you to a continuing education opportunity this fall. While PAH is a collection of diseases and conditions with diverse etiologies, the majority of clinical trial data has featured a narrow spectrum of illness. Extrapolating clinical trial data from one population to another group has not been proven to demonstrate similar levels of efficacy or safety. Additionally, within the “traditional” PAH population, the subgroup of males with IPAH/APAH have consistently showed a more-rapid course of illness than females.

This lecture will focus on the issue of the gender paradox, as well as diagnostic and treatment issues relating to PAH related to liver disease (portopulmonary hyperten­sion), PAH as a result of schistosomiasis, out-of-proportion PAH associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and patients with Group 1 PAH, which includes pulmonary vaso-occlusive disease (PVOD) and/or pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH).
