Interventional treatment for pulmonary embolism (PE) has significantly evolved in recent years, largely due to advancements in techniques, knowledge, and device technology. Dr. Zarina Sharalaya (interventional and structural cardiologist) and Dr. Ripal Gandhi (interventional radiologist) join host Dr. Chris Beck to discuss the evolving landscape of PE treatment, comparing large-bore mechanical thrombectomy with catheter-directed thrombolysis and exploring outcomes from the PEERLESS randomized control trial.

SYNPOSIS
Dr. Sharalaya and Dr. Gandhi begin by covering risk stratification and treatment algorithms for their patients with PE. The doctors then go onto discuss the procedure in detail, and best practices and techniques for mechanical thrombectomy. The conversation also focuses on the PEERLESS trial, highlighting how the study showed significant benefits of mechanical thrombectomy, including faster symptom improvement, decreased ICU stay, and reduced readmission rates. Dr. Sharalaya and Dr. Gandhi conclude the episode with a series of case presentations.
