INTRODUCTION The stratification of acute pulmonary embolism (PE) using the simplified pulmonary embolism severity index (sPESI) and shock index (SI) does not require any prognostic tools such as ...

Introduction Justification for assessing pulmonary embolism severity and risk of early death. With epidemiological studies reporting that the current annual incidence rates of pulmonary embolism (PE) ...

With the ESC classifications, 29.6% of patients were low risk based on having a negative troponin result on standard cardiac troponin I testing, a simplified pulmonary embolism severity index of 0, ...

Healthcare professionals use the Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (PESI) and the simplified PESI (sPESI) to help determine your mortality risk within 30 days of experiencing a pulmonary embolism ...

A new study suggests that many patients with pulmonary embolism who present as hemodynamically stable may be in subclinical shock due to low cardiac index. Moreover, mechanical thrombectomy may ...

It has been employed in the Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index but counts for only 10 points out of 210. "If you look at ILD and PE outcomes, there's nothing really out there [in the literature ...

The primary outcomes were MI and PE, and the participants were followed for a maximum of 9 years to the outcome of interest, death from another cause, or the end of follow-up on November 30, 2022 ...

Key takeaways: ED discharge rates for acute PE visits remained consistent over time between 2012 to 2020. Outpatient management of low-risk acute PE is probably underutilized, researchers said.
