Critical Management of Haemodynamically Unstable Acute Pulmonary Embolism in COVID-19.
Acta Med Indones
October 2024
Department of Cardiology and Vascular Medicine, Faculty of Medicine Universitas Indonesia - Harapan Kita National Cardiovascular Center, Jakarta, Indonesia.
Increased thrombotic events that occur in up to one-third of patients with COVID-19 are predominantly pulmonary emboli (PE), which are associated with higher severity and increased mortality. Acute PE should therefore be one of the main differential diagnoses among patients with hemodynamic instability. Early treatment of such a condition with systemic thrombolysis remains the first line of treatment especially in patients with COVID-19, which hinders further invasive intervention.
