| Core Tip |
Pulmonary embolism (PE) ranks as the third leading cause of cardiovascular-related deaths in Western nations. Patients classified as high-risk-those exhibiting hemodynamic instability-require immediate interventions to restore blood flow. Catheter-directed therapy has emerged as a promising option, offering the ability to alleviate clot burden and reduce strain on the right ventricle, all while posing a lower risk of major bleeding compared to systemic thrombolysis. This article explores the current understanding and future direction of managing PE, focusing in the role of catheter-based interventions. |
