متن کاملDeep Vein Thrombosis, Pulmonary Embolism and Related Factors in Patients with Traumatic Brain Injury
Background and Objective:Deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism are fatal problems following brain trauma that, if left untreated, can dramatically increase mortality. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and related factors in patients with traumatic brain injury. Materials and Methods:This cross-sectional study was performed on 38 patie...
متن کاملDiagnostic testing to guide the management of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension: state of the art.
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is a life-threatening and debilitating disease affecting up to 5% of survivors of pulmonary embolism. Diagnostic testing is important to distinguish it from other forms of pulmonary hypertension and to assess the feasibility of pulmonary endarterectomy. This review provides an up-to-date perspective on the diagnosis and assessment of the dis...
متن کاملDiagnosis of thromboembolic disease: Combined ventilation perfusion lung scan and compression ultrasonography
The clinical management of pulmonary embolism and deep venous thrombosis of the legs are similar and requires prolonged anticoagulation therapy. The standard diagnostic approach in patients suspected of pulmonary embolism is ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) lung scan and compression ultrasonography to detect deep venous thrombosis. This retrospective study analyzed the role of V/Q lung scan an...
متن کاملThrombolytic therapy for submassive pulmonary embolus? PRO viewpoint.
If we had robust evidence one way or the other to inform us on the use of thrombolytics in submassive pulmonary embolus (PE), we would not need this debate. But, we do not and, so, we do. The stakes are considered high both in favour and against thromobolysing submassive PE, so we cannot brush the debate under the carpet while we await the evidence. It is accepted that high-risk/massive PE, def...
