Advances in the management of patients with suspected pulmonary embolism (PE) have improved diagnostic accuracy and made management algorithms safer, easier to use, and well standardized. These diagnostic algorithms are mainly based on the assessment of clinical pretest probability, D‐dimer measurement, and imaging tests—predominantly computed tomography pulmonary angiography. These diagnostic algorithms allow safe and cost‐effective diagnosis for most patients with suspected PE. In this review, we summarize signs and symptoms of PE, current existing evidence for PE diagnosis, and focus on the challenge of diagnosing PE in special patient populations, such as pregnant women, or patients with a prior VTE. We also discuss novel imaging tests for PE diagnosis and highlight some of the additional challenges that might require adjustments to current diagnostic strategies, such as the reduced clinical suspicion threshold, resulting in a lower proportion of PE among suspected patients as well as the overdiagnosis of subsegmental PE. 相似文献

Summary. Risk stratification tools that accurately quantify the prognosis of patients with pulmonary embolism (PE) may be useful in guiding medical decision making. Prospective studies demonstrated that clinical factors, echocardiographic right ventricular dysfunction, and cardiac biomarkers (troponins, brain natriuretic peptides) are independent predictors of short-term mortality in patients with PE. The presence of systemic hypotension or shock carries the highest risk of death, and thrombolysis is usually indicated. Among hemodynamically stable patients, clinical prognostic models, echocardiography, and biomarkers accurately identify low-risk patients with PE who are potential candidates for less costly outpatient care. However, the practical use of these prognostic measures is currently limited by the lack of studies demonstrating a positive impact on patient care. The benefit of risk stratification strategies based on clinical prognostic models, echocardiography, and cardiac biomarkers should be demonstrated in prospective studies before their implementation as decision aid to guide initial treatment can be recommended. 相似文献

肺栓塞的诊断方法 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
肺栓塞在临床上较为常见,但诊断较困难。诊断应始于识别肺栓塞发生的危险因素及评估患者发生肺栓塞的可能性大小以及患者的临床症状和体征。常规的客观检查包括D-二聚体测定、心电图、胸片及超声心动图等。近年来,尚有人研究经食道超声在肺栓塞诊断中的价值。而且,随着影像学技术的发展,CT血管造影(CTA)、磁共振血管造影(MRA)及与其相关的一系列先进手段也逐渐应用于肺栓塞的诊断中,并显示出良好的应用前景。肺血管造影一直被认为是肺栓塞诊断的金标准,有人认为,多探测器螺旋CT(MDCT)的运用可能成为诊断肺栓塞的无创金标准,但结合临床的综合判断仍是诊断的基础。 相似文献

Although pulmonary embolism (PE) is often considered a difficult diagnosis to establish, important clinical clues and properly ordered laboratory and imaging tests can reliably detect or exclude this potentially fatal condition. This article will provide a practical approach to recognizing clinical situations in which PE should be suspected. This guide to PE diagnosis will be tailored to those with busy practices, outlining a focused history and physical examination as well as optimal strategies for test ordering. Instead of performing an encyclopedic laundry list of tests, clinicians can pick and choose carefully among them, which maximizes efficiency and cost-effectiveness. The choice of tests is flexible, thus allowing the clinician to utilize the strengths of the particular hospital in which the patient is evaluated. This article will help ensure that patients with PE are identified rapidly and, conversely, that those without PE will undergo an appropriate workup for other important medical conditions. With a 3-stage approach consisting of (1) clinical evaluation; (2) nonimaging laboratory tests; and (3) imaging tests, PE can often be quickly detected with a definitive evaluation. 相似文献

Summary. Introduction: Although the advent of multi‐detector row computed tomography (CT) has enabled better visualization of subsegmental pulmonary (SSP) arteries, SSP embolism is of uncertain clinical significance. We aimed at answering the following questions: Is spiral CT an accurate method to detect SSP embolism? How are subsegmental perfusion defects managed in outcome studies including spiral CT? What are the main characteristics and outcomes of patients in whom CT detects isolated subsegmental defects? Methods: We performed a Medline search on July 1, 2004, using the keywords ‘pulmonary embolism’ and ‘computed tomography’. We limited our search to English language prospective studies comparing CT to pulmonary angiography, and to prospective outcome studies including CT in a diagnostic strategy, with at least a 3‐month follow‐up. Results: Fourteen studies comparing CT to pulmonary angiography, and five prospective management studies using CT were retrieved. The sensitivity of single‐detector CT for detecting subsegmental defects compared with pulmonary angiography was low (25%). The proportion of isolated SSP images was significantly higher in management studies using multi‐detector CT (17 of 770 scans, 2.2%) compared with those using single‐detector CT (22 of 2232, 1.0%; P = 0.01). No straightforward attitude regarding anticoagulation therapy for isolated subsegmental defects emerged from the available literature. Finally, important clinical differences were found between patients having subsegmental and segmental or more proximal defects. Conclusions: These findings underline the uncertainty regarding the clinical significance of SSP embolism, and the management of patients with such findings. 相似文献

DVT and pulmonary embolism: Part I. Diagnosis 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The incidence of venous thromboembolic diseases is increasing as the U.S. population ages. At least one established risk factor is present in approximately 75 percent of patients who develop these diseases. Hospitalized patients and nursing home residents account for one half of all cases of deep venous thrombosis. A well-validated clinical prediction rule can be used for risk stratification of patients with suspected deep venous thrombosis. Used in combination with D-dimer or Doppler ultrasound tests, the prediction rule can reduce the need for contrast venography, as well as the likelihood of false-positive or false-negative test results. The inclusion of helical computed tomographic venography (i.e., a below-the-pelvis component) in pulmonary embolism protocols remains under evaluation. Specific combinations of a clinical prediction rule, ventilation-perfusion scanning, and D-dimer testing can rule out pulmonary embolism without an invasive or expensive investigation. A clinical prediction rule for pulmonary embolism is most helpful when it is used with subsequent evaluations such as ventilation-perfusion scanning, D-dimer testing, or computed tomography. Technologic advances are improving the resolution of helical computed tomography to allow detection of smaller emboli; however, further study is needed to provide definitive evidence supporting the role of this imaging technique in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism. D-dimer testing is helpful clinically only when the result is negative. A negative D-dimer test can be used in combination with a clinical decision rule, ventilation-perfusion scanning, and/or helical computed tomography to lower the probability of pulmonary embolism to the point that aggressive treatment is not required. Evidence-based algorithms help guide the diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. 相似文献

The incidence and prognostic significance of elevated cardiac troponins in patients with submassive pulmonary embolism 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
J. D. DOUKETIS O. LEEUWENKAMP P. GROBARA M. JOHNSTON† M. SÖHNE‡ M. TEN WOLDE‡ H. BÜLLER‡ 《Journal of thrombosis and haemostasis》2005,3(3):508-513
Although the incidence and prognostic significance of elevated cardiac troponins are known in patients with massive pulmonary embolism (PE), few studies have addressed this issue in patients with hemodynamically stable, submassive PE, who comprise the majority of patients presenting with PE. This prospective cohort study was, therefore, designed to determine the incidence and prognostic significance of elevated cardiac troponins in patients with submassive PE. Consecutive patients with acute, symptomatic, submassive PE that was confirmed by objective diagnostic testing were studied. All patients received treatment with either unfractionated heparin or fondaparinux followed by a coumarin derivative and underwent clinical follow-up for 3 months. Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) levels were measured within 24 h of clinical presentation. An elevated cTnI was defined as > 0.5 microg L(-1) and indicated myocardial injury. Major myocardial injury, that is associated with myocardial infarction, was defined by a cTnI > 2.3 microg L(-1). The clinical outcomes were recurrent venous thromboembolism and all-cause death. In 458 patients with submassive PE, the incidence of cTnI > 0.5 microg L(-1) was 13.5%[95% confidence interval (CI): 10.4-16.7], and the incidence of cTnI > 2.3 microg L(-1) was 3.5% (95% CI: 2.0-5.6). An elevated cTnI > 0.5 microg L(-1) was associated with an increased risk of all-cause death [odds ratio (OR) = 3.5; 95% CI: 1.0-11.9], but did not appear to confer an increased risk of recurrent venous thromboembolism (OR = 1.1; 95% CI: 0.2-4.9). In patients who present with submassive PE, an elevated cTnI occurs in about one in seven patients and is associated with a 3.5-fold increased risk of all-cause death. 相似文献

ObjectivesPulmonary embolism (PE) is one of the leading causes of cardiovascular mortality worldwide. Electrocardiography (ECG) may provide useful information for patients with acute PE. In this study, we aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of the QRS duration and RS time in inferolateral leads in patients admitted to the emergency department, and pre-diagnosed with acute PE.MethodsWe retrospectively enrolled 136 consecutive patients, admitted to the emergency department, pre-diagnosed with the clinical suspicion of acute PE, and underwent computerized tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) to confirm the PE diagnosis. The study subjects were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of PE, and the independent predictors of PE were investigated.ResultsSixty-eight patients (50%) had PE. Patients with PE had a longer RS time. Among the ECG parameters, only RS time was an independent predictor of PE (OR: 1.397, 95% CI: 1.171–1.667; p < 0.001). The ROC curve analyses revealed that the cut-off value of RS time for predicting acute PE was 64.20 ms with a sensitivity of 85.3% and a specificity of 79.4% (AUC: 0.846, 95%CI: 0.749–0.944; p < 0.001). In the correlation analyses; the RS time was correlated with RV end-diastolic diameter (r = 0.422; p < 0.001), RV/left ventricle (LV) ratio (r = 0.622; p < 0.001), and systolic pulmonary artery pressure (SPAP) (r = 0.508; p < 0.001).ConclusionAs a novel ECG parameter, RS time could be measured for each patient. A longer RS time can be a very useful index for diagnosing acute PE as well as for estimating the RV end-diastolic diameter and SPAP. 相似文献

Massive or high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE), defined as PE in the setting of (transient) arterial hypotension or frank cardiogenic shock, is associated with a poor prognosis. Fibrinolytic therapy is the mainstay of therapy, although data to support its effectiveness are limited. Although rarely performed, an alternate, accepted treatment strategy is surgical embolectomy. Contraindications to fibrinolytics are common in the setting of high-risk PE, and surgical embolectomy is frequently not performed owing to excessively high surgical risk. Under those circumstances, percutaneous, catheter-based thrombectomy or thrombus fragmentation is a reasonable alternative. In this article, we summarize the data available to date, evaluating the three different treatment options. We also attempt to synthesize a treatment algorithm to guide the practitioner in the treatment of patients with high-risk or massive PE. 相似文献
