This study looks at how well a catheter (a thin tube) works to treat a serious type of blood clot in the lungs. It is for people who have a large clot that is causing problems like fast heart rate or low blood pressure.
This study tests whether using a catheter (a thin tube) to remove blood clots from the lungs early can help people with a severe, life-threatening pulmonary embolism. It is for patients who are in shock or have had a cardiac arrest due to a large clot.
This trial tests whether a standard procedure using a catheter to deliver clot-dissolving medicine directly into the lung artery works well for people with a serious but not immediately life-threatening blood clot in the lungs (pulmonary embolism). It aims to improve heart function and reduce long-term complications.
This trial tests three ways of using a catheter (a thin tube) to remove or break up blood clots in the lungs for people with a serious but stable type of pulmonary embolism. The goal is to find the best approach to improve recovery and reduce complications.
This study looks at how well different treatments work for a blood clot in the lung (pulmonary embolism). It includes people who are getting or have already gotten a clot-dissolving medicine or a catheter procedure to remove the clot.
This study tests a new catheter-based device that delivers clot-dissolving medicine directly to the blood clot in the lungs for people with a moderate-risk pulmonary embolism. The goal is to improve blood flow to the lungs and relieve symptoms with a lower dose of medication than standard care.
