چکیده

Background: The incidence of pulmonary thromboembolism has been considered rare in Japan. However, its occurrence has been increasing because of westernized lifestyle and diet, increased diagnostic technique, and recognition of this disease. Method: Between January 2003 and September 2014, 179 patients were treated for pulmonary thromboembolism. We classified these patients into 3 groups; Massive (n=35), Sub-massive (n=29) and Nonmassive (n=115) and retrospectively reviewed the treatment options and the outcome. Results: Percutaneous cardiopulmonary support (PCPS) was applied for patients with hemodynamic instability and IVC filter was inserted if there was proximal DVT. In non-massive group (n=115), 95.7% of the patient underwent anticoagulant therapy and 47.0% of the patients received IVC filter. In submassive group (n=29), 48.3% of the patient received thrombolytic therapy and 93.1% of the patient underwent IVC filter insertion. Surgical pulmonary embolectomy was performed in 3 patients who had high risk of thrombolytic therapy in submassive group. There was no death in this group. In massive group, 4 patients who had cardiogenic shock died in acute phase. PCPS was applied in 5 patients, pulmonary embolectomy was performed in 13 patients, thrombolytic therapy was performed in 4 patients and 13 patients underwent anticoagulant therapy alone. There were 7 deaths (20.0%) in this group. Conclusions: In submassive group, treatment should be decided depending on the bleeding risk. In massive group, pulmonary embolectomy was effective.

Prognostic Impact of Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction Risk Index on Hospitalization Mortality of Patient with Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Introduction: Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is one of the deadly cardiovascular diseases. One of the indexes proposed in these patients for risk stratification is the Thrombolysis in Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) risk index (TRI), which includes three parameters of systolic blood pressure, age, and heart rate. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of TRI on in-hospit...

Evaluation of CT angiography findings in the patients with clinical diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism

Background and Aim: Pulmonary thromboembolism is an important clinical problem in the patients after major surgeries and is often difficult to diagnose because of nonspecific clinical symptoms. Diagnosis of pulmonary embolism is based on medical imaging methods. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of CT pulmonary angiographies of the patients with primary clinical diagnosis of pul...

Predictors of early hospital readmission after acute pulmonary embolism.

BACKGROUND Risk factors for early mortality after pulmonary embolism (PE) are widely known. However, it is uncertain which factors are associated with early readmission after PE. We sought to identify predictors of readmission after an admission for PE. METHODS We studied 14 426 patient discharges with a primary diagnosis of PE from 186 acute care hospitals in Pennsylvania from January 1, 200...
