Brief Summary: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive condition with high morbidity, frequent hospitalizations, and risk of right heart failure. Despite advances in treatment, poor adherence remains a major challenge. This randomized controlled study assesses whether remote monitoring can improve treatment adherence, clinical outcomes, and side effect management in PAH patients on oral therapy.
Detailed Description: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe, progressive condition requiring strict adherence to complex treatment regimens to improve outcomes. Despite advances in pharmacological therapy, non-adherence remains a significant challenge, impacting disease progression and increasing healthcare burden.

The OPENLINE study is a randomized, multicenter clinical trial designed to evaluate the impact of a structured telemedicine intervention on treatment adherence in PAH patients receiving stable oral therapy. Participants in the intervention group will receive biweekly teleconsultations for six months, focusing on patient education, adherence monitoring, and side effect management. The control group will follow standard clinical care without additional remote support.

The primary outcome is medication adherence, assessed using the Martín-Bayarre-Grau (MBG) scale. Secondary outcomes include changes in functional class, six-minute walk test distance, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels, risk stratification (COMPERA 2.0 and REVEAL Lite), hospitalizations, mortality, and quality of life measured by the CAMPHOR questionnaire.

This study aims to determine whether a telemedicine-based intervention can enhance medication adherence and improve clinical outcomes in PAH patients, potentially informing future care strategies.
