In Situ Pulmonary Artery Thrombosis and Low Flow Stasis Artifact in Parenchymal Lung Disease: An Under‐Recognized Phenomenon

Pulmonary Circulation
Pulmonary emboli (PE) are a common clinical problem seen when a peripheral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) migrates to the pulmonary arteries. However, emerging literature suggests that not all filling defects in the pulmonary arteries are the result of ...

Pulmonary embolism response team: A multidisciplinary approach to pulmonary embolism treatment. Polish PERT Initiative Report

Kardiologia Polska, 2021
A pulmonary embolism response team (PERT) is a multidisciplinary team established to improve clinical care for patients with pulmonary embolism (PE). However, data regarding detailed institutional experience and clinical outcomes from such teams are sparse.We aim to assess the frequency of activations, patients' characteristics, PE severity, applied ...

Catheter-Based Therapies Decrease Mortality in Patients With Intermediate and High-Risk Pulmonary Embolism: Evidence From Meta-Analysis of 65,589 Patients

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
BackgroundCatheter-directed therapies (CDT) are an alternative to systemic thrombolysis (ST) in pulmonary embolism (PE) patients, but the mortality benefit of CDT is unclear.ObjectiveWe conducted a systematic review with meta-analysis to compare the ...
