Pulmonary embolism is a condition that can strike suddenly, sometimes with deadly consequences. New research on treatments for the condition could lead to better outcomes and understanding of risk factors. Blood Clot Risks Found for Hospitalized Children ...
Objectives To present a review on the traditional and new biomarkers of pulmonary embolism (PE). Data source A systematic search has been carried out using keywords as PE, biomarker, diagnosis and risk stratification. Results The results of this work have been structured into three parts. First,...
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is caused by emboli, which have originated from venous thrombi, travelling to and occluding the arteries of the lung. PE is the most dangerous form of venous thromboembolism, and undiagnosed or untreated PE can be fatal. Acute PE is associated with right ventricular dysf...
Pulmonary embolism (PE) refers to an obstruction of a pulmonary artery by material that has traveled to the lungs from elsewhere in the body through the blood stream. From:Goldman's Cecil Medicine (Twenty Fourth Edition),2012 About this page ...
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is when a blood clot (thrombus) becomes lodged in an artery in the lung and blocks blood flow to the lung. Pulmonary embolism usually arises from a thrombus that originates in the deep venous system of the lower extremities; however, it rarely also originates in the...

To compare the severity of pulmonary embolism (PE) and the long-term complications between patients with and without COVID-19, and to investigate whether the tools for risk stratification of death are valid in this population. We retrospectively included
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the leading cause of in-hospital death and the third most frequent cause of cardiovascular death. The clinical presentation of PE is variable, and choosing the appropriate treatment for individual patients can be challenging. Traditionally, treatment of PE has involved a ...

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common, life threatening cardiovascular emergency. Risk stratification is one of the core principles of acute PE management and determines the choice of diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. In routine clinical practice, clinicians rely on the patient’s electronic health ...
