About this trial
This observational study will seek to describe the uses and safety and efficacy outcomes of treprostinil in clinical practice in patients with persistent pulmonary hypertension (PPHN).
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Newborn infants who received at least one dose of IV or SC treprostinil as per clinical practice within 5 years from the moment of data collection.
Aged up to 44 weeks after conception at treprostinil initiation.
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) or suspicion of PH at the moment of treprostinil initiation.
Parent(s) or legally authorized representative(s) provides non-opposition consent for the patient participation in the study.
Disqualifiers
None.
Trial population
Approximately 60 newborns with PH (of whom at least 40 newborns with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn \[PPHN\]) are expected to be included.
