@thanh_neville @ParthRali @TempleHealth @TempleLung @TemplePCCM @accpchest @TLCKAM Temple Med Class of '84 (yes, I'm old, Thanh lol)! Also, my father was Chief of Endocrinology there for more than 30 years. Great place!

@DJC6998 @stanhenkin @GBarnesMD @mnyoung1 @AaronAdayMD @ASchmaier @EricSecemskyMD @herbaronowMD Part of the problem is the definition of “high risk”. A patient requiring 3 pressors and barely hanging on is very different than one who is awake and comfortable with mild hypotension or post syncope but now normotensive. All are classified as high risk but are not the same!

If a single defect, neg DVT, and incidental finding, I don’t recommend treatment

@DrNikkiMit @DrLongissimus @OrenFriedman @vic_tapson @JonnyMoriarty Impressive. Although not always clot. I’ve seen PA sarcomas that looked exactly like this.

@agraif @PERTConsortium @Angiologist @akhileshsistaMD @MGHPert @jameshorowitzmd @OrenFriedman Not knowing all the details, but If the patient has COVID pneumonia, and presumably poor pulmonary reserve, given risk of even a small PE, I would favor short term filter placement, and prophylactic dose LMWH. As well as serial u/s

@NidaQadirMD @drtishawang @soniajasujamd @UCLAPCCM @UCLAPulmVasc @AlexShermanMD @ktmel11 @IOEmeruwa @rsuri88 @acmonte @NoCoughEng Well, since I taught both of them...

There are so many more options for thrombectomy now, especially for no-TpA patients: RCC with IVC occlusion and acute DVT to the pops. Clottriever with restoration of flow @SIRRFS
