Key result
Thrombus vascular location and clot burden score on CTPA correlated with risk stratification and negatively correlated with systolic blood pressure in patients with acute pulmonary embolism.
Why the study?
Determining thrombus location in the pulmonary vascular tree on CTPA is important for predicting disease severity in acute pulmonary embolism, but its correlation with risk stratification needed further analysis.
Does thrombus location and clot burden score on CTPA correlate with disease severity and risk stratification in patients with acute pulmonary embolism?
Population
Patients with acute pulmonary embolism diagnosed by CTPA admitted between January 28, 2016, and July 1, 2019
Comparison

May refine acute PE risk assessment from routine CTPA but should not yet change practice; leaves open incremental prognostic value.
Observational
Does thrombus location and clot burden score on CTPA correlate with disease severity and risk stratification in patients with acute pulmonary embolism?
Thrombus location and clot burden score on CTPA correlate with clinical risk stratification and cardiac strain markers in acute pulmonary embolism.
İlim Irmak (2020) conducted an observational in Acute pulmonary embolism. Thrombus location and clot burden score was evaluated on Correlation with disease severity and risk stratification. Thrombus vascular location and clot burden score on CTPA correlated with risk stratification and negatively correlated with systolic blood pressure in patients with acute pulmonary embolism.
