【實用醫療app】Detect PAH|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

The PAH risk calculator is a tool for all physicians dealing with systemic sclerosis (SSc). The calculator was developed and validated in the DETECT study. The DETECT study was designed and carried out by a group of experts, all of whom are physicians practising in different countries, and was supported by Actelion Pharmaceuticals Ltd.

The calculator was developed for your daily clinical practice. It will help you to identify and diagnose SSc patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which is a serious condition that develops in 8-13% of SSc patients and is the leading cause of death in patients with this disease. The calculator is based on an algorithm with a high sensitivity and specificity and can help you to decide which of your SSc patients should be evaluated using echocardiography, and of those patients who should be referred for right heart catheterization.
