No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Clinical presentation of acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is complex and varied and not uncommonly involves respiratory failure with dyspnea or hypoxia. Patients with persisting signs of respiratory failure despite anticoagulation, may benefit from catheter directed thrombectomy. Additionally, patient who receive thrombectomy are likely to have a lower residual thrombus burden measurable by ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) scan, and thereby less likely to develop chronic sequela, including chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) and post PE syndrome.
