Background Right ventricle dysfunction (RVD) at echocardiography predicts mortality in
patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE), but heterogeneous definitions of RVD have …

Aims Pulmonary embolism severity index (PESI) has been developed to help physicians
make decisions about the treatment of patients with pulmonary embolism (PE). The …

Objectives: The primary objectives were to describe the diagnostic characteristics tricuspid
annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) for pulmonary embolism (PE) and to optimize the …

Background TAPSE provides a simple, reproducible estimate of the longitudinal function of
the right ventricle (RV). However, the normal limits and physiologic correlates of tricuspid …

The incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE), including lower extremity deep vein
thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) is increasing. The increase in suspicion for …

Background Pulmonary embolism (PE) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) are potentially
fatal disease states. Early diagnosis and goal-directed management improve outcomes and …

Study objective We determine the diagnostic accuracy of goal-directed echocardiography,
cardiac biomarkers, and computed tomography (CT) in early identification of severe right …

Submassive pulmonary embolism (PE) lies on a spectrum of disease severity between
standard and high-risk disease. By definition, patients with submassive PE have a worse …

O trombembolismo venoso (TEV) manifesta-se como trombembolismo pulmonar (TEP) e/ou
trombose venosa profunda (TVP), fazendo parte de um mesmo espectro de doença e …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to propose a deep learning-based approach to
detect pulmonary embolism and quantify its severity using the Qanadli score and the right-to …
