A decision tree built with parameters obtained by computed tomographic pulmonary angiography is useful for predicting adverse outcomes in non-high-risk acute pulmonary embolism patients
2019
Background
Acute pulmonary embolism (APE) is one of the leading causes of death in cardiovascular disease. The 30-day mortality can still be 1.7–15% in non-high-risk APE patients. Some non-high-risk patients can progress into the high-risk group and even die, which is referred to as an adverse outcome. Promoting the diagnosis and predictive ability of adverse short-term prognosis was still a problem that needed to be solved. Computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) may be a way to promote the predictive ability. Our aim to develop predictive tools based on parameters obtained by computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in the form of a decision tree for use in non-high-risk acute pulmonary embolism (APE) patients.
