Marc Philip Righini,Josien van Es,Paul L. den Exter,Pierre-Marie Roy,Franck Verschuren,Alexandre Ghuysen,Olivier Thierry Rutschmann,Olivier Sanchez,Morgan Jaffrelot,A Trinh-Duc,Catherine Le Gall,Farès Moustafa,Alessandra Principe,Anja A. van Houten,Marije Ten Wolde,Renée A. Douma,Germa Hazelaar,Petra M. G. Erkens,Klaas W Van Kralingen,Marco J. J. H. Grootenboers,Marc Durian,Y. Whitney Cheung,Guy Meyer,Henri Bounameaux,Menno V. Huisman,Pieter Willem Kamphuisen,Grégoire Le Gal +26 more
TL;DR: The combination of pretest clinical probability assessment with age-adjusted D-dimer cutoff was associated with a larger number of patients in whom PE could be considered ruled out with a low likelihood of subsequent clinical venous thromboembolism.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of 4 Clinical Decision Rules in the Diagnostic Management of Acute Pulmonary Embolism: A Prospective Cohort Study
Renée A. Douma,Inge C. M. Mos,Petra M. G. Erkens,Tessa A.C. Nizet,Marc Durian,Marcel M. C. Hovens,Anja A. van Houten,Herman M.A. Hofstee,Frederikus A. Klok,Hugo ten Cate,Erik F. Ullmann,Harry R. Büller,Pieter Willem Kamphuisen,Menno V. Huisman +13 more
TL;DR: All 4 CDRs show similar performance for exclusion of acute PE in combination with a normal d-dimer result, and prospective validation indicates that the simplified scores may be used in clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Natural Course of Hemodynamically Stable Pulmonary Embolism: Clinical Outcome and Risk Factors in a Large Prospective Cohort Study
M. Nijkeuter,Maaike Sohne,Lidwine W. Tick,Pieter Willem Kamphuisen,Mark H. H. Kramer,Laurens Laterveer,Anja A. van Houten,Marieke J. H. A. Kruip,Frank W.G. Leebeek,Harry R. Büller,Menno V. Huisman +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated consecutive patients with PE derived from a prospective management study, who were followed for 3 months, treated with anticoagulants, and underwent objective diagnostic testing for suspected recurrent VTE or bleeding.
Journal ArticleDOI
The combination of four different clinical decision rules and an age-adjusted D-dimer cut-off increases the number of patients in whom acute pulmonary embolism can safely be excluded
Josien van Es,Inge C. M. Mos,Renée A. Douma,Petra M. G. Erkens,Marc Durian,Tessa A.C. Nizet,Anja A. van Houten,Herman M.A. Hofstee,Hugo ten Cate,Eric F. Ullmann,Harry R. Büller,Menno V. Huisman,Pieter Willem Kamphuisen +12 more
TL;DR: In patients above 50 years, a normal age-adjusted D-dimer level in combination with an 'unlikely' CDR substantially increased the number of patients in whom PE could be safely excluded.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diagnostic outcome management study in patients with clinically suspected recurrent acute pulmonary embolism with a structured algorithm.
Inge C. M. Mos,Renée A. Douma,Petra M. G. Erkens,Marieke J. H. A. Kruip,Marcel M. C. Hovens,Anja A. van Houten,Herman M.A. Hofstee,Judith Kooiman,Frederikus A. Klok,Harry R. Büller,Pieter Willem Kamphuisen,Menno V. Huisman +11 more
TL;DR: CTPA provides reasonable safety in excluding acute recurrent PE in patients with a likely clinical probability or an elevated D-dimer test for recurrent PE, with a low risk for fatal PE at follow-up.
