Also detailed is the work of Ciara McCormack, an expert clinical exercise physiologist working with PHA Ireland in devising a bespoke Pulmonary Hypertension (exercise) rehabilitation programme. It aims to provide PH patients with an opportunity to engage in some light exercises within their own home to help maintain their aerobic fitness and muscular strength – see the video here-.
