The purpose of the ERAsE-PE study is to determine whether two different healthy living strategies (along with anticoagulation) might aid in recovery after a patient is hospitalized for pulmonary embolism. Specifically, Investigators will compare changes in Cardiac Effort (#heart beats used during the 6-minute walk test/walk distance) measured after an 8-week program.
This study is a prospective, single-arm, interventional, multicenter study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy using the Akura Thrombectomy System in subjects with acute pulmonary embolism (PE).
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Cleaner™ Pro Thrombectomy System for aspiration thrombectomy in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE).
This is a prospective, multi-center, pivotal study to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Laguna Thrombectomy System for the treatment of pulmonary embolism. The Laguna Thrombectomy System is an investigational device which consists of the Laguna Clot Retriever™ System and the Malibu Aspiration Catheter™ System. These devices are manufactured by Innova Vascular, Inc.
A study of how supplemental oxygen helps patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Hypothesis: Oxygen affects right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) primarily by relieving hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and reducing pulmonary pressure (PA) pressure, and that this process is metabolically driven.
PE-TRACT is an open-label, assessor-blinded, randomized trial, aiming to compare catheter-directed therapy (CDT) and anticoagulation (CDT group) with anticoagulation alone (No-CDT) in 500 patients with submassive PE, proximal pulmonary artery thrombus and right ventricular dilation.
This study is focused on investigating the efficacy and safety of the FlowTriever device to treat low-risk submassive pulmonary embolism.
This study is an observational, prospective study examining the role point-of-care echocardiography of predicting short term adverse outcomes in emergency department patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The primary objective is to assess the diagnostic performance of ultrasound-guided measures of right ventricular dilation (RVD) and strain in predicting clinical outcomes in acute PE. The secondary objective is to investigate the utility of combining ultrasound-guided measures of RVD and the pulmonary embolism severity index (PESI) score in predicting adverse outcomes in acute PE.
The objective of this study is to evaluate real world long-term functional outcomes, safety and performance of the Indigo Aspiration System for the treatment of pulmonary embolism (PE).
Design: U.S.-based, single-center, proof-of-concept study Brief Description: A standard clinical contrast-enhanced chest CT scan performed 48 hours after clinically-indicated standard anticoagulation will be compared with a standard clinically-indicated baseline contrast-enhanced chest CT scan using a previously-studied and previously-validated 3-dimensional reconstruction technique to assess changes in the pulmonary vasculature in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). This previously-studied and previously-validated 3-dimensional reconstruction technique has been used to assess the response of the pulmonary vasculature to catheter-based fibrinolysis in acute PE as well as to assess the pulmonary vasculature in a number of chronic lung diseases. However, the pulmonary vascular response to standard anticoagulation for acute PE has not been assessed previously. Purpose: To compare the pulmonary vasculature before and after standard clinically-indicated anticoagulation for acute PE using a previously-studied and previously-validated 3-dimensional reconstruction technique applied with a standard clinically-indicated baseline contrast-enhanced chest CT scan (used to diagnose the acute PE) and a standard clinical contrast-enhanced chest CT scan performed 48 hours later as indicated by the study protocol. Population: Inpatients diagnosed with acute PE, in whom clinical providers have prescribed standard anticoagulation alone for treatment based on clinical grounds at Brigham and Women's Hospital. Enrollment: 10 subjects with acute PE Clinical Site Location: Single-center, Brigham and Women's Hospital Study Duration: 12 months Primary Imaging Outcome: CT-determined percent change in perfusion of the pulmonary vasculature from baseline to 48 hours in inpatients diagnosed with acute PE, in whom clinical providers have prescribed standard anticoagulation alone for treatment based on clinical grounds at Brigham and Women's Hospital. Secondary Imaging Outcome: CT-determined percent change in right ventricular (RV) volume from baseline to 48 hours in inpatients diagnosed with acute PE, in whom clinical providers have prescribed standard anticoagulation alone for treatment based on clinical grounds at Brigham and Women's Hospital.
