简要总结
Pulmonary embolism impacts over 1 in 1000 adults annually and is the third leading cause of cardiovascular death after heart attack and stroke. The consequence of each PE is widely variable. Physiologically, the morbidity and mortality of PE is ultimately caused by failure of the right ventricle. The acute rise in pulmonary vascular resistance caused by a PE can overwhelm the right ventricle, resulting in a drop in cardiac output and death from failure of the heart to provide vital perfusion. Despite the importance of stroke volume and cardiac output in the current understanding of PE mortality, they are notably absent from risk stratification scores because they historically could only be measured invasively.
Novel non-invasive methods of estimating stroke volume and associated cardiac output have the potential to revolutionize PE risk stratification and care. Non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) monitors can even measure stroke volume beat to beat, allowing for continuous evaluation of cardiac function. NIBP systems are typically composed of a finger cuff with an inflatable bladder, pressure sensors, and light sensors. An arterial pulse contour is formed using the volume clamp method of blood pressure measurement combined with calibration and brachial pressure reconstruction algorithms. The stroke volume with each heart beat can be estimated as the area under the systolic portion of the blood pressure curve divided by the afterload. NIBP monitors may improve clinical care of PE because they allow for assessment of dynamic cardiac changes in real time. Detection of worsening stroke volume in acute PE could inform providers of impending cardiac collapse, and improvement of stroke volume may function as a positive prognostic factor or marker of therapeutic success. Use of NIBP monitors during acute PE to identify clinically significant changes in cardiac function may advance both PE prognostication and management.
Our clinical study proposes to monitor hemodynamic parameters including stroke volume in patients with acute pulmonary embolism using non-invasive blood pressure monitors. The relationship between hemodynamic parameters and PE outcomes will be assessed, as well as the changes in hemodynamic parameters with PE intervention. To our knowledge, interval monitoring of stroke volume during acute PE with NIBP monitors has never been reported before.
详细描述
This is a single center study to evaluate the use of non-invasive measurement of stroke volume and cardiac output to assess risk and response to treatment in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). A total of 40 subjects at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center are anticipated to be enrolled.
After informed consent is obtained, the following procedure will be performed:
Patients requiring ICU level care with confirmed diagnosis of PE by CT angiogram or EBUS will be connected to a device that measures hemodynamics non-invasively called the Edwards ClearSight system and Edwards EV1000 clinical platform for 12 to 24 hours. The device is a finger probe worn with a supportive forearm strap. Hemodynamic measurements from the finger cuff will be recorded at intervals. After 12 hours, measurements will be taken if patient comfort and compliance allows.
Patients will be followed through their hospitalization. Standard of care data will be collected from the medical record including vital signs, cardiac monitor recordings, baseline electrocardiogram, central venous pressure (CVP) if available, ventilator settings and measurements, labs (troponin, d-dimer, lactate, pH, complete blood count, basic metabolic panel, B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal-pro hormone BNP (NT-proBNP), prothrombin time and international normalized ratio (PT/INR), anti-Xa assay, and partial thromboplastin time (PTT)), imaging, interventions performed, therapies administered, discharge outcome and functional status.
As this is a study looking at the feasibility of non-invasive measurement of cardiac output and stroke volume for treating acute pulmonary embolism, study personnel performing the study procedures will not be blinded to the clinical diagnosis and the management of the subject.

入选标准
- •Patient ≥ 18 years of age.
- •The patient must understand and sign informed consent form (ICF).
- •Patients requiring intensive care unit (ICU) level care with a confirmed diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE) by computed tomography (CT) angiogram or endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) prior to or within 4 hours of initiation of any PE therapy or intervention.
- •If a patient already has non-invasive hemodynamic monitoring by the Edwards system or by other systems, such as the Cheetah NICOM system, as part of their standard of care, this patient can still be enrolled. If the patient is already being followed by another system such as NICOM, the Edwards system would be added to it as long as the patient consents.

Patients diagnosed with Pulmonary Embolism
Patients requiring intensive care unit (ICU) level care with a confirmed diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE) by computed tomography (CT) angiogram or endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) prior to or within 4 hours of initiation of any PE therapy or intervention.

结局指标
主要结局
stroke volume index (SVI)
时间窗: 12-24 hours
Stroke Volume Index (SVI) relates SV to body surface area (BSA), thus relating heart performance to the size of the individual. The unit of measurement is millilitres per square metre (ml/m2).
heart rate (HR)
时间窗: 12-24 hours
The number of heartbeats per unit of time, usually per minute. Measured in beats per minute (BPM)
cardiac output (CO)
时间窗: 12-24 hours
Cardiac Output (CO) is the amount of blood the heart pumps from each ventricle per minute. It is usually expressed in litres per minute (L/min).
systemic vascular resistance (SVR)
时间窗: 12-24 hours
Systemic vascular resistance (SVR) refers to the resistance to blood flow offered by all of the systemic vasculature, excluding the pulmonary vasculature. The units for SVR are most commonly expressed as pressure (mmHg) divided by cardiac output (mL/min), or mmHg⋅min⋅mL\^-1
stroke volume (SV)
时间窗: 12-24 hours
Stroke Volume (SV) is the volume of blood in millilitres ejected from the each ventricle due to the contraction of the heart muscle which compresses these ventricles.
blood pressure (BP)
时间窗: 12-24 hours
The pressure of the blood in the circulatory system, often measured for diagnosis since it is closely related to the force and rate of the heartbeat and the diameter and elasticity of the arterial walls. Systolic Blood Pressure in mmHg Diastolic Blood Pressure in mmHg
cardiac index (CI)
时间窗: 12-24 hours
Cardiac index (CI) is the cardiac output proportional to the body surface area (BSA). The unit of measurement is litres per minute per square metre (L/min/m2).
