are under 200 mg/dL, the dose should be reduced or the
infusion stopped. In a meta-analysis of CDT series, the
frequency of success was higher if at least 80% of patients
received locally delivered thrombolytic therapy during the
procedure (91.2% vs. 82.8%, P = 0.01) or for an extended
period of time (89.2% vs. 84.2%, P = 0.045). However, the
included studies were quite heterogeneous, making a denitive benet of catheter-directed thrombolytic treatment
over other CDTs dicult to prove.

To improve delivery of tPA to the pulmonary vasculature and decrease tPA infusions times (and subsequently
tPA doses), ultrasound-assisted thrombolysis (USAT) for
the treatment of massive and submassive PE may be used.
Currently, the EkoSonic Endovascular System (EKOS Corp.,
Bothwell, WA) is the only USAT device that is approved for
use in the United States. e use of ultrasound energy results
in reversible disaggregation of non-cross-linked brin bers
and opens up sites for tPA binding in order to facilitate drug
eect. Additionally, ultrasound pressure waves may increase

done unilaterally or bilaterally, the latter of which is more
common. e USAT catheter is 6-Fr compatible; however,
if bilateral treatment is planned, a 10-Fr femoral venous
sheath is necessary. e pulmonary vasculature is selected

using standard techniques. Once wire access to the lobar
branches is obtained, the infusion catheter is advanced over
the wire and the ultrasound core is inserted that delivers
high-frequency (2.2 GHz), low energy (0.5 W per transducer) ultrasound waves.

e ULTIMA trial is the only randomized trial of
treatment with USAT to date.21 is trial randomized 59
patients with intermediate-risk PE (RV/LV ratio ≥1.0) to
heparin therapy or heparin plus USAT with the EkoSonic
Endovascular System to deliver either unilateral or bilateral tPA at 1 mg/hour for 15 hours. e primary endpoint
was the RV/LV ratio change from baseline to 24 hours aer
treatment. In the USAT group, placement of the catheter
was successful in 100% of patients (87% received bilateral
catheter placement). ere was a signicant dierence in the
RV/LV ratio for the USAT group (1.28 ± 0.19 to 0.99 ± 0.17
[P < 0.001] vs. heparin 1.2 ± 0.14 to 1.17 ± 0.2 [P = 0. 31]).
e mean RV/LV ratio dierence was 0.3 ± 0.2 for USAT
compared to 0.03 ± 0.16 for the heparin group (P < 0. 0 01).
However, these dierences were not signicant at 90 days.
Most RV hemodynamics were signicantly improved at 24
hours with USAT compared to heparin treatment. Mean

Overal l, these studies demonstrate the feasibilit y of USAT
for the treatment of intermediate-risk PE. However, there
are no randomized trials of USAT compared to standard
catheter-directed thrombolytic infusion. Additionally, the
endpoints for these studies are usually markers of cardiac
and pulmonary hemodynamics. ey represent surrogate
endpoints without clear correlation to long-term outcomes.
ere has been no long-term mortality or morbidity benet
demonstrated with many of these techniques to date, which
would support changing current guidelines for treatment
in submassive PE. Further eorts are necessary to delineate
the patients who will receive the most benet from these
techniques.
21.7 SURGICAL PULMONARY
Surgical pulmonary embolectomy (SPE) remains a viable
and eective means of treating massive acute PE, as well
as submassive acute PE with adverse prognosis, when
thrombolysis is contraindicated. ese are oen best performed in centers with experience in these procedures,
as candidates for this procedure are inherently unstable.
Historically, SPE was reserved for massive PE with hemodynamic instability and when standard treatment had
failed, or thrombolytics were contraindicated, as a last-line
eort. It is not unexpected that those selected for treatment

not dierent and no major bleeding occurred. Four minor
bleeding events occurred with USAT and one occurred in
the heparin-only group.
21
In several larger retrospective series (Table 21.2), USAT
had simi lar eects on RV/LV ratio improvement. Engelberger
etal. reported on 52 patients with intermediate- and highrisk PE. e RV/LV ratio decreased from 1.42 ± 0.21 to
1.06 ± 0.23 aer 24 hours (P < 0.001). e greatest benet
appeared to be in high-risk patients. Complications included
a 3.8% mortality rate, major bleeding in 3.8% of patients, and
22
minor bleeding in 21% of patients.
Additionally, Kennedy
etal. reported on 60 patients treated with USAT. All patients
had successful catheter placement. Complete thrombolysis
occurred in 57% of cases and PA pressures decreased significantly. eir series reported a 5% mortality rate.23 McCabe
etal. reported on 53 patients with similar improvements in
RV/LV ratio, PA pressures, and a 9.4% bleeding rate.24 Other
series that have been reviewed have shown that USAT can
be performed with bleeding rates of 2%–20% and low morta l ity.20 Finally, in the only report to compare USAT to standard catheter-directed thrombolytic treatment, Lin et al.
reported more complete thrombolysis, shorter infusion
times (17.4 ± 5.2 vs. 25.3 ± 7.3 (h), P = 0.03), lower tPA doses
(17. 2 ± 2.4 vs. 25.4 ± 5.3 (mg), P = 0.03), and lower bleeding
complications (0% vs. 21%, P = 0.02) with USAT compared
to standard catheter-directed thrombolysis.

have been reported to have a poor prognosis. However, outcomes of SPE have greatly improved, and may oer benets
over medical therapy or attempts at repeated thrombolytic
treatment.26 In a literature review by Stein etal. of SPE from
1985 to 2005, average mortality declined from 32% to 20%
over this period, although there were slightly fewer patients
with pre-operative cardiac arrest in the latter group (33%
vs. 27%). Not surprisingly, those undergoing surgery with
pre-operative cardiac arrest had a 59% mortality rate compared to 20% for those who did not have a pre-operative
arrest.
More recently, Leacche et al. reported on 47 patients
undergoing emergent SPE at Brigham and Women’s Hospital,
which has taken an aggressive approach to SPE.
(95%) had RV dysfunction by echo, and indications included
a contraindication to anticoagulation (47%), failed medical
treatment (10%), and RV hemodynamic dysfunction (32%).
eir technique includes mandatory transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) to assess RV function and the presence of
patent foramen ovale (PFO) and atrial septal defects (ASDs;
these would change operative cannulation and myocardial
protective strategies). Aer median sternotomy, patients are
placed in cardiopulmonary bypass with normothermia and
without cardioplegic arrest (unless PFO or ASD is present).
A longitudinal or transverse PA arteriotomy is made and
clots are removed under direct visualization with forceps
and suction. Fogarty catheters are avoided to prevent distal
vessel injury. An inferior vena cava lter is placed at the end
of the case. irty-day mortality occurred in three patients
(6%), of which two had a pre-operative cardiac arrest, and

complications included two patients requiring reoperation

was 27 months, and the 1- and 3-year survival rates were
86% (95% CI: 70%–90%) and 83% (95% CI: 66%–92%),

these encouraging results, the authors have extended SPE for

embolism
No. Guideline
3.5.1 We recommend therapeutic anticoagulation with subcutaneous
LMWH, subcutaneous fondaparinux, or IV UFH for initial
anticoagulation of acute PE.
3.5.2 Anticoagulation alone is recommended for low-risk PE or
submassive PE with mild RV dysfunction.
3.5.3 Thrombolysis is recommended for massive PE if bleeding risk is
acceptable.
3.5.4 Thrombolysis is suggested for submassive acute PE that is felt to
have poor prognosis if bleeding risk is acceptable.
3.5.5 Catheter thrombectomy, thrombus fragmentation, or surgical
embolectomy is recommended for patients with massive PE
and contraindications for thrombolysis depending on local
expertise.
3.5.6 Catheter thrombectomy, thrombus fragmentation, or surgical
embolectomy is recommended for patients with massive PE
and who remain unstable after thrombolysis if local expertise is
available.
3.5.7 Catheter thrombectomy or surgical embolectomy is suggested for
patients with submassive PE judged to have poor prognosis.
3.5.8 We recommend against catheter thrombectomy or surgical
embolectomy for low-risk PE or submassive PE with minor RV
dysfunction.

should be referred before the onset of cardiogenic shock
and have large central thrombus burdens (within the main
trunk or right or le main PA). Surgery can be performed
with normothermia and with or without bypass, aortic cross
clamping, and cardioplegic arrest. Only visualized thrombus is removed and inferior vena cava lters are placed at
case completion due to the risk of recurrent PE.

As outcomes with this re-emerging technique have improved,
this remains a viable treatment options for those with massive and submassive PE, making a coordinated multidisciplinary approach to PE critical to tailoring treatment based
on patient factors and institutional expertise.

22.1 INTRODUCTION
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a source of major morbidity and mortality. e incidence of VTE exceeds 1/1000,
and there are an estimated 200,000 rst lifetime cases diagnosed in the United States every year. e 7-day mortality
of patients suering from VTE is 25%, with up to a third
of patients with pulmonary embolism (PE) dying suddenly.
VTE is the fourth leading cause of death in Western society
and the third leading cause of cardiovascular death behind
myocardial infarction and stroke. Of those individuals surviving their event, approximately 30% will develop recurrent VTE within 10 years, and greater than 20%–30% will
develop the post-phlebitic syndrome over this time period
(even higher with iliofemoral deep vein thrombosis [DVT]).
VTE is more frequent in the elderly, and the incidence of
thrombosis increases signicantly beyond 60 years of age.
As our population ages, the VTE incidence will increase.
Clearly, VTE is a problem that is encountered by a wide
variety of patients and providers. is chapter is intended
to guide those involved in patient care by providing direct
access to easy-to-use algorithms for commonly encountered clinical scenarios. Standardized treatment management plans are dened through the algorithms. ese may
decrease practice variation and be useful with inexperienced sta, and may provide some control over risk management. As a word of caution, algorithms sometimes fail to
account for diagnostic uncertainty, unique clinical circumstances, and patient preference/anxiety, and may perform
dierently amongst dierent populations or when used by

dierent care providers. Clinician and patient acceptance
are required in order to use algorithms, and every eort has
been made to ensure that the algorithms listed utilize tests
that are widely available and have been validated for the disease process being evaluated. e following algorithms and
supporting text are obtained from Chapters 18, 19, 20, 21,
23, 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28; key references are as listed at the
conclusion of each chapter.
22.2 PROPHYLAXIS
VTE can be prevented, particularly in the hospitalized
patient (see Chapter 23). Appropriately delivered prophy-
laxis is cost-eective, reduces VTE by 50%–70%, and carries an acceptably low risk of hemorrhage. Without DVT
prophylaxis, VTE rates are high for both surgical and nonsurgical hospitalized patients. Although the incidence of
VTE varies by both patient and procedure, VTE may occur
in up to 20% of surgical patients. As more than 28 million
surgical procedures are performed each year in the United
States, and more than 35 million non-surgical patients are
admitted each year to U.S. hospitals, this is a major health
problem. With the evolution toward expanded outpatient
delivery of medical and surgical services, only the sickest
patients are hospitalized. e thrombotic event rate may
be as high as 16% in these non-surgical patients without
prophylaxis. PE accounts for nearly 10% of all hospital
deaths and is one of the most preventable causes of mortality. PE may occur without prior warning, and sudden
death may be the initial symptom of disease. According to

recent guidelines, low-dose unfractionated heparin, lowmolecular-weight heparin (LMWH), or fondaparinux,
are safe and eective prophylaxis strategies for hospitalized patients with other medical conditions. For bleeding
patients or those who are at low risk of VTE development,
mechanical compression (intermittent pneumatic compression) is indicated (Figure22.1). For patients at moderate and
high risk of VTE, Figure 22.1 provides recommendations
for thromboprophylaxis regimens.
22.3 DIAGNOSIS
e diagnostic workup of a suspected VTE depends on the
degree of clinical suspicion of DVT or PE (see Chapter 18).
Several validated scoring systems exist to aid the clinician
in determining the pre-test probability of such a diagnosis, most notably the Well’s score for DVT (Table 22.1) and

PE (Table 22.2) and the Antwerp score for PE (Table 22.3).
Ascore resulting in a low or moderate probability of DVT
or PE should guide the clinician to D-dimer as the initial
“rule-out” test (Figures 22.2 and 22.3). A high probability
should trigger a more aggressive workup with duplex ultrasound (Figure 22.2) if DVT is suspected, or PE protocol
computed tomography (CT) (Figure 22.3) if PE is suspected.
Importantly, modern-day diagnosis should include only
noninvasive testing with a low risk prole. ere is little to
no role for invasive tests, such as lower extremity venography or pulmonary angiography, except under unusual circumstances or when invasive interventions are planned.

A score of 2 or higher indicates that the probability of deep vein
thrombosis is likely; a score of less than 2 indicates that the
probability of deep vein thrombosis is unlikely. In patients with
symptoms in both legs, the more symptomatic leg is used.

LMWH is preferred, although unfractionated heparin
remains an excellent option in patients with renal insuciency or if there is concern regarding bleeding risk, given
its shorter half-life and more reliable reversal with protamine. Figure 22.4 outlines decision making regarding a
variety of commonly encountered comorbid conditions
presenting with DVT, such as pregnancy and cancer.
22.5 TREATMENT OF ILIOFEMORAL DVT
Management following a diagnosis of iliofemoral DVT
(Figure 22.5) is anticoagulation therapy along with leg
elevation and compression; ambulation is encouraged (see
Chapter 19).
