Pulmonary Artery Rupture after Ultrasound-assisted Catheter-directed Thrombolysis

A multidisciplinary decision was made by the PE Response Team to pursue ultrasound-assisted catheter-directed thrombolysis (USCDT) (Figure 2). Impact of thrombolytic therapy on the long-term outcome of intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism. Pulmonary embolism response to fragmentation, embolectomy, a...

Description
Summary:A multidisciplinary decision was made by the PE Response Team to pursue ultrasound-assisted catheter-directed thrombolysis (USCDT) (Figure 2). Impact of thrombolytic therapy on the long-term outcome of intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism. Pulmonary embolism response to fragmentation, embolectomy, and catheter thrombolysis (PERFECT): initial results from a prospective multicenter registry.
