I'm Aware That I'm Rare: the phaware® podcast is devoted to raising global pulmonary hypertension awareness with dynamic stories from PH patients, caregivers and medical professionals from around the world.
Through this series of impactful, insightful and, most importantly, hopeful stories from members of the global pulmonary hypertension community, we hope to further the global #phaware conversation as well as to capture, engage and enable misdiagnosed and undiagnosed PH patients because early diagnosis and treatment can mean the difference between life and death.
Topics range from the importance of early diagnosis and global PH awareness, to the impact of clinical trials to how patient support and advocacy are paramount to battling this disease.

Sandeep Sahay, MD - Pulmonary Hypertension
In this episode, Dr. Sandeep Sahay, a pulmonologist at Houston Methodist Hospital, discusses the concept of disease modification in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension (PH). He explains how traditional PH therapies focus on vasodilation, reducing pressure in the pulmonary artery by dilating blood vessels. However, newer therapies, such as sotatercept, work in different ways to reduce smooth muscle proliferation and thickness of the artery walls. Dr. Sahay suggests that if a drug is labeled as disease-modifying, it may be used in combination with existing PH medications from the beginning of treatment. However, he notes that further research, regulatory approval, and payer considerations are necessary for this to happen. @MethodistHosp @SandeepSahayMD

Lewis Romer, MD - Pulmonary Hypertension
Dr. Lewis Romer discusses his work on the PPHNet's Kids MoD PAH Trial: Mono- vs. Duo-Therapy for Pediatric PAH patients.
The Kids Mod PAH study is a research project funded by the NIH that aims to determine the best initial therapy for children with newly diagnosed pulmonary hypertension. The study compares the effectiveness of one medication (sildenafil) versus a combination of two medications (sildenafil and bosentan) in improving the quality of life and functional class of these children.
The study team aims to provide enhanced care and support to the participants and their families throughout the study. The ultimate goal is to contribute to improving the care and outcomes for all children with pulmonary hypertension.
