Clinical Trial Summary

Adult patients with suspected or confirmed Connective Tissue Disease Patients (CTD)With Pulmonary Hypertension(PH)will be recruited. Patients will be approached, consented, have baseline demographics, diagnostics and disease activity measures recorded, and blood taken. The collection of data and biological material will mirror usual clinical practice as far as possible. Subjects will ideally attend further visits at 3, 6 and 12 months to have bloods taken, outcome measures recorded and questionnaires completed.
