I had a submassive PE with saddle emboli when I was 28y/o. I was s/p ankle surgery and on OCPs. My BNP was in the upper 300s and my right heart strain was so severe that I was in heart failure. It was so severe that they considered thoracotomy, but they decided to take me to IR for debulking with EKOS, the leaving the catheters in for an extra 24-hrs to continue the direct TPA. Somehow I was hemodynamically stable the whole time. Still, my doctor said I was incredibly lucky to have survived. I was in the ICU for 3 days, and tele for 2 more. A year and a half later I developed another PE from an IV stick in my left arm that thrombosed. I'm now on Eliquis for the rest of my life.
Ohhh. Take care 😊
How old r u now?
Thanks for these videos Dr Bolin. 👍
You are awesome sir , I have been listening to your lectures from 2015
U really are a life saver for us medical students
Pulmonary Embolism (PE; 200k Mortality Prevalence) and Deep Venous Thrombosis ([DVT]: 75% Association) have the Differential Diagnosis of the following: 1) Anemia; 2) Pneumothorax; 3) Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP); 4) Arrhythmia; 5) Myocardial Infarction (MI); and 6) Congestive Heart Failure (CHF). Risk Factors of DVT are the following: 1) Venous Stasis; a) Bed Rest; b) Status Post Surgery; c) Obesity; 2) Injury to the Vessel Wall: 3) Hypercoagulability: a) Oral Contraceptive Pills (OCP); b) Exogenous Hormones; c) Factor V Leiden (FVL); d) Protein C or S Deficiency; e) Antiphospholipids Syndrome: and f) Pregnancy. Signs and Symptoms for DVT are: 1) Leg Swelling and Pain: 2) Warmth and Edema of Skin over Leg: 3) Pitting Edema; 4) Homan's Signs or Calf Pain on Dorsiflexion. Laboratory Investigations show an Elevated D-Dimer. When Subject is Stable a Duplex Ultrasound over the leg can confirm DVT, where Treatment (Tx) is Direct Oral Anticoagulant (Apixaban or Dabigatran et al). For PE the following is Standard: 1) SSx: 1) Signs and Symptoms of DVT; 2) Pleuritic Chest Pain; 3) Respiratory Distress/Dyspnea; 4) Tachycardia; 5) Jugular Venous Distension/Elevated Pressure and 6 Hemoptysis; where Laboratories show 1) Respiratory Alkalosis (ABG Finding); 2) Increased A-a Gradient (ABG Calculation); 3) Elevated D-Dimer (D-Dimer Test); and 4) Elevated B Type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) ; 3) Diagnosis (Dx) is made via a Spiral Computed Tomography Imaging (Radiology with Contrast) where Angiography is even more Sensitive and Specific (High Mortality Invasive Procedure) and V/Q Scan if Spiral CT is contraindicated (Renal Failure, Pregnancy, or Contrast Sensitivity); Chest X Ray is useful initially as to eliminated Pneumonia, Pneumothorax and Myocardial Infarction Suspicions (DDx) but frequently normal for PE and an Echocardiogram can show Right Heart Strain if Severe PE or be normal in Asymptomatic to Mild PE; Treatment (Tx) and Management (Mx) of PE includes 1) Admission to Telemetry Unit; 2) Supplemental Oxygen (O2); 3) Direct Oral Anticoagulants (DOAC) as in Xa Inhibitors or Direct Thrombin Inhibitors and Anticoagulation Therapy for 6 Months (Post Discharge Treatment) if Hemodynamically Stable ( 1) No Hypotension; 2) No Tachycardia; 3) No ARDS: or 4) No Right Heart Strain on Ultrasound); If Pregnancy is an issue then Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) is indicated. When Hemodynamically Unstable, Treatment is 1) Thrombolytic Therapy (tPA) or Surgery for Mechanical Removal of Clot if tPA Contraindicated. Both DVT and PE Subjects warrant Referral To Hematology for Hypercoagulation Workup. Boy, my first successful Massive PE Diagnosis and successful Thrombectomy referral. Just Kidding!

Thanks for the lecture! I thought it is not recommended to do a homan’s sigh since you do not want to break the thrombus?
This is a great presentation. Do you have a Nephrology lectures? Thank you so much
Check his channel.
According to the American society of hematology 2020 guidelines and amboss LMWH and warfarin are to be done before dabigatran but not apixaban .

Is there any benefit of looking for asymptomatic DVT among "high risk" BUT asymptomatic patients?
As far as screening? No.
The baby look like she loves you so much , babies can sense things , hope you are back to health soon in Jesus name 💕🌷💕🙏
