The latest National Audit of Pulmonary Hypertension shows continuing strong performance by the UK’s specialist centres…
The consistent message we receive from our members is that the care from their specialist teams is outstanding – and now the latest results from an NHS quality measure confirms they are doing an excellent job.
Every year, the National Audit of Pulmonary Hypertension (NAPH) measures the quality of care provided to PH patients in the UK by asking specialist centres to provide data that is then compared against a set of 15 agreed standards. The latest audit, covering 2023-24, shows high levels of care continue – despite centres seeing more patients than ever.
“The results of this year’s audit should provide reassurance to people living with pulmonary hypertension that the UK National Network continues to provide high quality care.”
- Professor David Kiely, NAPH Clinical Lead
