Expert opinion on the creating and operating of the regional Pulmonary Embolism Response Teams (PERT). Polish PERT Initiative

Cardiology Journal, 2020
Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT) is a multidisciplinary team established to stratify risk and choose optimal treatment in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Established for the first time at Massachusetts General Hospital in 2013, PERT is based on a concept combining a Rapid Response Team and a Heart Team.

PERT era, race‐based healthcare disparities in a large urban safety net hospital

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 13, Issue 4, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third leading cause of cardiovascular death in the United States. Black Americans have higher incidence, greater clot severity, and worse outcomes than White Americans. This disparity is not fully understood, especially in the context of the advent of PE response teams (PERT), which aim to standardize PE‐related ...

Vancouver General Hospital Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (VGH PERT): initial three-year experience [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Anesthesia/Journal canadien d'anesthésie, 2020
Clinical equipoise exists with the use of novel reperfusion therapies such as catheter-directed thrombolysis in the management of patients presenting to hospital with high risk pulmonary embolism (PE). Therapeutic options rely on clinical presentation, patient factors, physician preference, and institutional availability.

Biomarkers of Thrombo-Inflammatory Responses in Pulmonary Embolism Patients With Pre-Existing Versus New-Onset Atrial Fibrillation

Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, 2021
Pulmonary embolism (PE) patients have an increased prevalence and incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF). Because comorbid AF increases risk of morbidity and mortality, we sought to investigate the role of thrombo-inflammatory biomarkers in risk ...

Effects of a Consensus-Based Pulmonary Embolism Treatment Algorithm and Response Team on Treatment Modality Choices, Outcomes, and Complications

Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis, 2020
Pulmonary embolism (PE) treatment depends on disease severity and risk of complications. Physician and institutional expertise may influence the use of reperfusion therapy (RT) such as systemic thrombolysis (SL) and catheter-directed interventions (CDI).
