68Ga PET/CT Versus 99mTc SPECT/CT for Lung Perfusion and Ventilation Scintigraphy; a Technical and Practical Feasibility Study
Lung perfusion scintigraphy with 99mTc-MAA and ventilation scintigraphy with Technegas (V/Q SPECT/CT) has been the cornerstone for the detection of pulmonary embolisms (PE) for many decades. In last two decades after the introduction of pulmonary CTA, general PE detection has shifted towards CTA and V/Q SPECT/CT has become the modality …
Impact on Quality of Life With Pulmonary RehAbilitation After Pulmonary eMBOlism: RAMBO Study
Pulmonary Embolism (PE) is a common and serious disease. Indeed, the annual incidence is 1/1000 patients per year and the 3-month mortality is 10%, which is twice that of myocardial infarction. The treatment is based on anticoagulation for at least 3 months. However, after three or six months of anticoagulation, …
Pulmonary Embolism - Thrombus Removal With Catheter-Directed Therapy
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.
Safety and Effectiveness of the Akura Thrombectomy System for Use in the Removal of Emboli From the Pulmonary Arteries in Treating Acute Pulmonary Embolism (PE)
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).
Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension After Pulmonary Embolism
to detect the incidence of CTEPH patients. Primary outcome To predict CETHP in symptomatic patients after pulmonary embolism episode. Secondary outcome: On Echocardiography revealed RV dysfunction which are peak TR Velocity , the RV/LV basal diameter ratio, flattening of the IVS, RV acceleration time and/or midsystolic notching, IVC diameter with …
Early Catheter-directed Treatment of High Risk Pulmonary Embolism
Prospective, multicenter, open label, randomized controlled clinical trial to compare the effects of an early catheter-directed treatment plus conventional care with conventional care in patients with high-risk pulmonary embolism
Assessment of Recovery of Functional Capillary Surface Area in Patients Undergoing a Balloon Pulmonary Angioplasty for Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension [CTEPH] is caused by pulmonary emboli that have enlarged in pulmonary arteries and have become organized into the vessel wall. Many patients with CTEPH are treated with balloon pulmonary angioplasty [BPA] which mechanically opens the narrow pulmonary arteries. It is unclear how much downstream functional pulmonary …
'Thrombectomy in High-Risk Pulmonary Embolism - Device Versus Thrombolysis Netherlands': TORPEDO-NL
TORPEDO-NL will be an investigator-initiated, academically sponsored, multicentre, open-label, randomized controlled trial (RCT). Patients with high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) require immediate reperfusion therapy on top of anticoagulation. The standard reperfusion treatment in these patients is full-dose systemic thrombolysis. This carries a significant risk of major bleeding (10-25%) and intracranial haemorrhage …
Safety and Effectiveness of the Akura Thrombectomy System in the Treatment of Acute Pulmonary Embolism
This study is a prospective, single-arm, non-randomized, interventional, multicenter feasibility study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy using the Akura Thrombectomy System in subjects with acute pulmonary embolism (PE).
Evaluation of the Standard Catheter-directed Thrombolysis Effectiveness in Intermediate-High-Risk Pulmonary Embolism Patients
A single-center, open-label, randomized comparative study of two treatment strategies in patients with intermediate-high-risk acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to standard anticoagulant therapy or standard catheter-directed thrombolysis (SСDT) with a low dose of alteplase, followed by evaluation of short- and long-term efficacy and …
