PAH-Associated CTD: A Case for Differentiating SSc and SLE
AMA/ANCC/ACPE Activity - Lecture Library Slide Set
Simply Speaking PAH includes a curriculum that highlights the very latest clinical data in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Slides are developed and updated throughout the year by leading PAH expert physicians. All content is reviewed and approved by the Simply Speaking PAH Planning Committee.

Patients seen in a typical rheumatology practice are at higher risk of PAH secondary to their conditions. Rheumatologists should maintain a high index of suspicion for PAH in their patients with systemic sclerosis and other mixed connective tissue disorders. Emerging evidence suggests that two of the most prevalent CTDs, systemic sclerosis (SSc) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), should be regarded as separate diseases due to their different etiologies, prognoses, and therapeutic responses. This slide kit will present insights into the different pathophysiological processes and management of patients with SSc and SLE-PAH, as well as recommendations for routine screening, risk factors, diagnosis, management, and ongoing monitoring of patients in a rheumatology practice for PAH.
Review the activity and claim AMA, ANCC or ACPE credit/contact hour after completion of a brief pretest and posttest/evaluation.
