Walking activity study for pulmonary hypertension patients
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses a small wearable sensor to track your walking for 7 days. It aims to understand how pulmonary hypertension affects daily movement and how it changes over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension through a heart catheterization procedure.
- You can walk on your own for at least 100 meters (about the length of a football field) without help.
- Your symptoms are mild to moderate (not severe) at the time of joining.
- You are willing to wear a small sensor on your wrist for 7 days.
- You have a follow-up visit scheduled in 3, 6, or 12 months.
- You have not been in the hospital for a lung problem in the last 30 days.

This study tests whether a home-based exercise program, guided by a smartphone app, can improve your daily life and heart function if you have pulmonary hypertension. You will use a wearable device to track your activity and receive remote support from a medical team.
This study tests how well a smartwatch measures oxygen levels in people with pulmonary hypertension during a 6-minute walk. It could help find a simpler way to check oxygen at home.
This study looks at how pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) impacts lean muscle mass. It may help researchers understand changes in your body and find new ways to support your health.
This study tests new “trial tools” and designs for running early research in people with pulmonary hypertension. If you qualify, you may be asked to do extra trial-related procedures to help researchers test the process safely and smoothly.
This study tests whether a special exercise training program can help people with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) feel better and stay stable. If you have mild-to-moderate PAH and are on stable medication, you may be able to join.
This observational study is looking at people diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension to better understand how it behaves over time. You may help researchers by allowing repeated check-ins for years and sharing symptom and test information.
