Study Overview

Brief Summary

The overall goal of this clinical research study is to prospectively assess primary outcomes related to pulmonary embolism (PE) that occur immediately (within 5 days) and within 30 days. The secondary goal is to compare validated prediction models and a modified European Society of Cardiology (ESC) approach that is primarily right ventricle dysfunction (RVD) driven with clinical risk assessment being secondary, and with primary outcomes of clinical deterioration within 5 days.

Detailed Description

The investigators wish to develop the Pulmonary Embolism Short-term Clinical Outcomes Registry (PE-SCOR). The investigators also wish to determine the incidence of death and circulatory and respiratory deterioration, and administration of reperfusion therapy within 5 days in PE patients. The study will also evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and positive and negative predictive values of each RVD assessment option. The investigators will also derive a prediction model for PE patients for the primary outcome within five days. Finally, investigators will determine the functional outcomes of PE patients 30 days after PE.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD)

Time Frame: Index visit

Presence of any one indicator of RVD: any one goal directed echocardiography finding of RVD (right ventricle (RV) enlargement or, leftward deviation of the interventricular septum, or RV systolic dysfunction by longitudinal movement of the tricuspid annulus of the RV free wall), CT right ventricle : left ventricle ratio greater or equal to 1, positive troponin or B-type Natriuretic Peptide, EKG injury and ischemia patterns of RVD

Clinical Deterioration

Time Frame: 5 days

Presence of any one clinical deterioration variable: death, circulatory or respiratory dysfunction, reperfusion interventions.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Pulmonary Embolism Complications(30 days)
  • Functional Outcome(30 days)
