Sonosnips (ICU POCUS) Episode 2! (US in Normotensive PE)
Manage episode 518801683 series 2665230
In this episode of the Core Ultrasound Podcast, Dr. Jailyn Avila and Dr. Terren Trott discuss the prognostic value of echocardiography in normotensive patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PMID: 24412192). We analyze a 2014 study published in the Journal of American College of Cardiology, which involved 411 patients who were initially normotensive. The study found that parameters like TAPSE less than 15 millimeters and the RV to LV ratio in the apical four-chamber view had the best predictive value for adverse outcomes. This episode offers insights into how these findings can be applied in clinical practice to improve patient management.
