Practice Point® CME Podcasts: Expert Discussions in Pulmonology™

New analyses show rising prevalence of progressive pulmonary fibrosis, persistent diagnostic delays, and continued gaps in antifibrotic use. Fresh data from major trials, including nerandomilast, inhaled treprostinil, admilparant, deupirfenidone, and nalbuphine ER for chronic cough, point to meaningful advances on the horizon. At the same time, patient-centered research highlights the need for clearer communication, coordinated care, and earlier intervention to improve daily functioning and long-term outcomes. This CME activity brings all these findings together in one clear, concise program that helps clinicians keep pace with a rapidly changing field and deliver more effective, patient-focused care.Launch/Release Date: December 9, 2025 Activity Expiration Date: November 30, 2026This podcast provides accredited continuing education credits.

Despite significant advancements in the management of pulmonary hypertension (PH), several unmet needs remain. Patients continue to face challenges related to symptom control, mental health, and the long-term impacts of both the disease and its treatments. Additionally, there is a critical need for improved global access to care, multidimensional support, and advocacy. In this podcast episode, Dr. Jean Elwing and Dr. Oksana Shlobin discuss these gaps by focusing on the latest updates from the 7th World Symposium on Pulmonary Hypertension (WSPH), offering insights into the latest clinical classifications, risk stratifications, and treatment strategies.This podcast aims to enhance clinical practice by presenting key research findings, new treatment algorithms, and the implications of emerging therapies. The discussion will include advances in multimodality imaging, genetics, and right ventricular function, highlighting how these innovations improve PH diagnosis and patient management. Through an expert-led presentation and interactive Q&A session, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of how these developments will shape future research and personalized care for PH patients.Launch Date: November 19, 2024Release Date: November 19, 2024Expiration Date: October 31, 2025FACULTYJean Elwing, MDProfessor of MedicineDirector, Pulmonary Hypertension ProgramUniversity of CincinnatiOksana Shlobin, MDMedical Director, Pulmonary Hypertension ProgramDirector of Education and Outreach, Advanced Lung Disease ProgramInova Fairfax HospitalThis podcast provides accredited continuing education credits.
