The Medically Led Sessions, which are presented by experts in the field of pulmonary hypertension for patients and caregivers, began this morning with a bang. We have some great topics and some sessions were standing room only they were so popular. One session, the "Investigational Therapies/Stem Cell in PH - What's on the Horizon" was flowing out the door (see right). Some of the topics today and tomorrow include:

• Basics of PH: Everything You Wanted to Know about PAH, but You Have to Ask
• Guinea Pig or Hero - The Journey through Clinical Trials
• Defensive Dining: Eating to Maintain Health and Avoid Complications - How to Eat Smart
• Surgery and Anesthesia in Patients with PH: What You Should Know
• Emergency Situations and Primary Care Issues
• PAH Drug Development: The Pipeline Runneth Over
• Diagnostics in PH - What Do All the Tests Mean?
• PH in the Setting of Liver Disease - What Makes it Different?
• Teeth, Bones and Other Surgical Problems for Kids with PH
• Education for the PH Caregiver

All sessions will be available on PHA Classroom in a few months for everyone to view.
