It was published on the European Lung Foundation (ELF) website on 02/11/2022. It is for people with pulmonary hypertension, or their family or carers. The summary was developed with the collaboration of the Task Force for the ESC/ERS Guidelines for pulmonary hypertension, which included two patient advocates, Pisana Ferrari and Gergely Meszaros.
