Pulmonary embolism is usually a consequence of deep vein thrombosis, and together the two conditions are known as venous thromboembolism. Non-thromboembolic causes of pulmonary embolism are rare. Pulmonary thromboembolism is a potentially life-threatening disease, if left untreated.

Pulmonary embolism is a commonly suspected but underdiagnosed condition of clinical significance. Preventable deaths continue to occur. We begin this article with an overview of prognosis, clinical evidence, signs and symptoms, and risk factors, followed by an in-depth evaluation of diagnostic techniques and treatment modalities.

Pulmonary embolism (PE) remains one of the most challenging medical diseases in the emergency department. PE is a potentially life threatening diagnosis that is seen in patients with chest pain and/or dyspnea but can span the clinical spectrum of medical presentations.

Pulmonary embolism is a common clinical problem that is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality. Although early diagnosis of pulmonary embolism is one of the critical factors affecting outcomes, clinical presentation is often nonspecific and can mimic that of several other conditions.

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and, therefore, pulmonary embolism (PE) are often preventable. Because of the lack of specificity of symptoms and signs, DVT and PE are frequently clinically unsuspected, leading to substantial diagnostic and therapeutic delays and resulting in considerable morbidity and mortality.

Treatment of pulmonary embolism
La Presse Médicale, 2015The treatment of pulmonary embolism is going to be deeply modified by the development of Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOACs). There are currently three anti-Xa factors (rivaroxaban, apixaban, edoxaban) and one anti-IIa factor (dabigatran) labeled by the FDA and the EMA.

It is reasonable to conclude by considering an approach to the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary embolism. When the diagnosis is suspect, and in the absence of contraindications, or hemodynamic instability, treatment with heparin may be begun and an arterial blood gas and perfusion lung scan obtained. If the Pao2 and perfusion scan are normal, it is
