Summary

Evaluating the safety and outcomes of catheter directed thrombolysis following catheter fragmentation in acute high risk pulmonary embolism

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

catheter directed fragmentation and thrombolysis

A(6)F multipurpose catheter will be advanced over a guide wire under fluoroscopic guidance and used to measure right heart and pulmonary artery pressures, then mechanical catheter fragmentation will be done using a pigtail catheter. The catheter will be quickly spun manually so as to fragment the central thrombus and establish initial flow into pulmonary artery. After ensuring initial flow, Initial bolus dose of streptokinase (250.000 international unit) will be given over 10 min followed by continuous infusion of (100.000 international unit per hour)for 24 hours

DRUG

Streptokinase

intravenous streptokinase at a dose of 250 000 international unit as a loading dose over 30 minutes, followed by 100 000 international unit per hour over 12-24 hours
