Risk Assessment Strategies in Pulmonary Embolism

Pulmonary Embolism

The aim of this study is to evaluate different scores of risk assessment in patients with pulmonary embolism. This study aim to compare the accuracy of these scores in predicting mortality during hospital admission.

Vascular Abnormalities Detected With Chest CT in COVID-19

Covid19Pneumonia2 more

Chest computed tomography of patients having coronavirus disease (COVID-19) will be analyzed with regards to vascular abnormalities (pulmonary embolism and vascular thickening), and their association with lung inflammation. The prevalence, severity, distribution, and prognostic value of chest CT findings will be assessed. Patients with vascular abnormalities will be compared to patients without, which is supposed to provide insights into the prognostic role of such abnormalities, and the potential impact on treatment strategy.

Does COVID-19 Infection Increase the Risk of Pulmonary Embolism?

Covid19Pulmonary Embolism

The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic on March 11, 2020. As of 19 July 2020, there have been 14.3 million confirmed cases and over 600,000 confirmed deaths. Up to 14% of infected patients develop interstitial pneumonia, which may evolve to acute respiratory distress syndrome. COVID-19 associated pulmonary arterial microthrombosis and coagulopathy has prompted physicians to implicate pulmonary embolism (PE) as a potential cause for acute respiratory deterioration. Literature review reveals few studies of varying size, quality and design. Recent meta-analysis reports venous thromboembolism in approximately 20% of COVID-19 patients. There has yet to be a case-controlled study which proves and quantifies the associated between COVID-19 and PE.Confirming and quantifying this association has numerous clinical implications for the treatment of critically unwell patients with COVID-19 infection. For example, clinicians will be more inclined to investigate and treat sudden deteriorations with the knowledge that pulmonary embolism is the commonest cause for said deteriorations.

Using a Novel Algorithm to Improve the Retrieval Rate of Inferior Vena Cava Filters (iRetrieve Study)...

Venous Thromboembolism,Pulmonary Embolism,1 more

Since 2003, that the first retrievable IVC filter was introduced in the U.S,improvements have been made in the filter design to resolve problems of structural integrity and increase the ability to remove the filter after longer periods of time.The FDA issued a communication in August 2010 advising physicians to remove retrievable filters whenever possible and updated that letter again in May 2014 due to concerns that these retrievable IVC filters, intended for short-term placement, are not always removed once a patient's risk for PE subsides. Known long term risks associated with IVC filters include but are not limited to lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT), filter fracture, filter migration, filter embolization and IVC perforation.

Prognostic Value of Prothrombin Fragments 1+2 for Pulmonary Embolism Incidence

Pulmonary DiseaseChronic Obstructive3 more

To determine the possible association of prothrombin fragments 1+2 elevation with incidents of pulmonary embolism in patients with COPD exacerbation.

Influence of Diagnostic Errors on the Prognosis of Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Pulmonary EmbolismPulmonary Embolism and Thrombosis3 more

Diagnostic errors have been reported frequently in patient with pulmonary embolism since symptoms are not specific. However, there is only scarce evidence that the delay associated with diagnostic errors may impact patient prognosis. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of diagnostic errors and if they are associated with more severe pulmonary embolism in term of initial presentation and complications.

Role of Echocardiography in Pulmonary Embolism

Pulmonary Embolism

To analyze the diagnostic and prognostic value of echocardiographic parameters. Prediction of APE-related 30-day mortality and adverse out comes. The need for rescue thrombolysis in initially normotensive Acute pulmonary embolism (APE) patients.

High Sensitive Troponin T (hsTnT) and Copeptin as Prognostic Parameters in Patients With Elective...

Perioperative Myocardial InfarctionsPulmonary Embolism

Summary: The purpose of the study is to prove if the biomarker high sensitive troponin T (hsTnT) and the biomarker of endogenous stress copeptin can serve as surrogate parameter of prognosis in patients with elective knee and hip total endoprosthesis.

Institutional Registry of Thromboembolic Disease

ThromboembolismVenous Thromboembolism1 more

The purpose of this study is to create an institutional registry of Thromboembolic disease through a prospective survey based on epidemiological data, risk factors, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment, monitoring and survival. The main goal is to describe the occurrence of thromboembolic disease and the characteristics of clinical presentation, evolution and predisposing factors of these episodes in the population of the Hospital Italiano de Buenos Aires.
