Brief Summary

To assess to which extent we are adherent to ESC guidelines 2019 in management of patients presented with acute pulmonary embolism

Detailed Description

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the third most frequent cardiovascular disease and is associated with a high mortality burden PE is defined as the obstruction of a pulmonary artery, mostly resulting from the dislodgement of thrombotic material from the lower limbs. It has a wide variety of presentations, ranging from an asymptomatic incidental finding to circulatory collapse and sudden death Pulmonary embolism response teams (PERTs) have emerged as a multidisciplinary team for managing acute pulmonary embolism, with a rapid activation process for multimodality assessment, risk stratification and best management especially for complex challenge cases. PERTs help in improving time to PE diagnosis; shorter time to initiation of anticoagulation reducing hospital length of stay, increasing use of advanced therapies as catheter directed therapies without an increase in bleeding complications with decreasing mortality
