The 2019 ESC Guidelines on the Diagnosis and Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism. [ 1 ] Perform bedside transthoracic echocardiography as an immediate step to differentiate suspected high-risk pulmonary embolism (PE) from other acute life-threatening situations in patients presenting with hemodynamic instability. Symptoms of a PE may include shortness of breath, chest pain particularly upon breathing in, and coughing up blood.
Symptoms of a blood clot in the leg may also be present, such as a red, warm, swollen, and painful leg. Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a blockage of an artery in the lungs by a substance that has moved from elsewhere in the body through the bloodstream (). 2014 ESC Guidelines on the diagnosis and management of acute pulmonary embolism The Task Force for the Diagnosis and Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) Endorsed by the European Respiratory Society (ERS) Authors/Task Force Members: Stavros Konstantinides* (Chairperson) (Germany/ 2019 ESC Guidelines for the diagnosis and management of acute pulmonary embolism developed in collaboration with the European Respiratory Society (ERS).

Konstantinides (Chairperson) Konstantinides SV, Torbicki A, Agnelli G, et al; Task Force for the Diagnosis and Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC). A new, collaborative guideline for acute pulmonary embolism now provides step-by-step diagnostics for the third most common cause of cardiovascular death in Europe. Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a relatively common vascular disease with potentially life-threatening complications in the short term. The purpose of our study was to analyze the ECG signs in patients hospitalized for PE in a cardiology unit.
Once the diagnosis of PE has been established, however, the ECG could allow the massive forms to be distinguished. If systolic BP is <90 mmHg, vasopressors may be given in parallel with (or while waiting for) pharmacologic, surgical, or interventional reperfusion treatment.
