Catheter-interventional Treatment of Pulmonary Embolism

A Randomized Trial for Catheter-interventional Treatment of Intermediate High Risk Pulmonary Embolism

• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A
• Study type: Interventional
• Enrollment: 20 (actual)
• Sponsor: Heart Center Leipzig - University Hospital · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

Recent evidence supports the use of catheter-interventional techniques for the treatment of intermediate-high-risk pulmonary embolism. While there is evidence supporting the use of catheter-thrombectomy and alternatively local fibrinolysis, less is known on the combination of both approaches. The investigators aim to assess the effects of a combined interventional local fibrinolysis and catheter-thrombectomy and to compare them with conventional treatment in a cohort of patients with intermediate-high-risk pulmonary embolism.

Conditions

• Pulmonary Embolism

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	combined catheter-thrombectomy and local fibrinolysis	combination of catheter-based thrombectomy with local pulmonary fibrinolysis plus conventional treatment
OTHER	conventional treatment	conventional treatment of pulmonary embolism
