In our 500th episode, Dr. Jason Weatherald, a pulmonologist at the University of Alberta in Canada, discusses a project called CRAVE (Canadian Right Ventricular Failure Adaptive Platform) to address the lack of treatments for right heart failure in patients with pulmonary hypertension.

He explains that platform trials, which allow for multiple interventions to be tested simultaneously, are more efficient and offer a higher chance of receiving a potential therapy compared to traditional clinical trials. 

Dr. Weatherald emphasizes the importance of patient involvement in research and highlights the use of phaware's HeartWorks mobile app, which allows patients to measure their walking distance at home, as a potential endpoint in the trial.
