Overview

Prospective analysis predicts mortality in pulmonary embolism using pleth variability index and perfusion index.

Key Points

  • Higher pleth variability index indicates a fourfold increased mortality risk in pulmonary embolism patients.
  • PVI and PI significantly differ between deceased and surviving patients, with p-values of 0.027 and 0.011 respectively.
  • Survival analysis supports the prognostic value of PVI, demonstrating its predictive ability for one-year mortality.
  • PVI serves as a reliable, noninvasive tool for assessing risk in patients with pulmonary embolism.
