Abstract
Both PAH-CHD classification systems identified groups of patients distinct in terms of baseline characteristics. In our cohort, however, only the anatomic-pathophysiologic classification identified significantly different survival from point of referral. The presence of adverse prognostic markers may be useful in identifying patients requiring more aggressive pulmonary vascular therapy.
