Article Synopsis
- A study called PEERLESS compared two catheter methods, large-bore mechanical thrombectomy (LBMT) and catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT), for treating intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) in 550 patients, focusing on various health outcomes.
- The results showed that LBMT led to fewer complications and less need for intensive care compared to CDT, including lower rates of clinical deterioration and ICU admissions.
- Although LBMT had better short-term outcomes, there were no significant differences in mortality or major bleeding between the two treatment methods after 30 days.
