Predictive value of troponins and simplified pulmonary embolism severity index in patients with normotensive pulmonary embolism
BACKGROUND To investigate whether 2 cardiac troponins [conventional troponin-T(cTnT) and high sensitive troponin-T(hsTnT)] combined with simplified pulmonary embolism severity index (sPESI), or either test alone are useful for predicting 30-day mortality and 6 months adverse outcomes in patients with normotensive pulmonary embolism(PE). METHODS The prospective study included 121 consecutive p...
متن کاملSimplification of the pulmonary embolism severity index for prognostication in patients with acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism.
BACKGROUND The Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (PESI) estimates the risk of 30-day mortality in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). We constructed a simplified version of the PESI. METHODS The study retrospectively developed a simplified PESI clinical prediction rule for estimating the risk of 30-day mortality in a derivation cohort of Spanish outpatients. Simplified and original P...

متن کاملThe Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index in Predicting the Prognosis of Patients With Pulmonary Embolism
BACKGROUND/AIMS Many prognostic models have been developed to help physicians make medical decisions on treating patients with pulmonary embolism. Among these models, the Pulmonary Embolism Severity Index (PESI) has been shown to be a successful risk stratification tool for patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The PESI, however, had not been applied to patients with pulmonary embolism in Kor...
