Journal ArticleDOI
Management Strategies and Determinants of Outcome in Acute Major Pulmonary Embolism: Results of a Multicenter Registry
Wolfgang Kasper,Stavros Konstantinides,Annette Geibel,Manfred Olschewski,Fritz Heinrich,Klaus D Grosser,Klaus Rauber,Stein Iversen,Matthias Redecker,J Kienast +9 more
TL;DR: Current management strategies of acute major pulmonary embolism are largely dependent on the degree of hemodynamic instability at presentation, and physicians often rely on the findings of bedside echocardiography and proceed to thrombolytic treatment without seeking further diagnostic certainty in nuclear imaging or angiographic studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heparin plus alteplase compared with heparin alone in patients with submassive pulmonary embolism.
TL;DR: When given in conjunction with heparin, alteplase can improve the clinical course of stable patients who have acute submassive pulmonary embolism and can prevent clinical deterioration requiring the escalation of treatment during the hospital stay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Right Ventricular Infarction as an Independent Predictor of Prognosis after Acute Inferior Myocardial Infarction
Manfred Zehender,Wolfgang Kasper,Elisabeth Kauder,Martin Schonthaler,Annette Geibel,Manfred Olschewski,Hanjörg Just +6 more
TL;DR: Right ventricular involvement during acute inferior myocardial infarction can be accurately diagnosed by the presence of ST-segment elevation in lead V4R, a finding that is a strong, independent predictor of major complications and in-hospital mortality.

TL;DR: Torbicki et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a task force to investigate the role of gender discrimination in sexual harassment in the sexual harassment of women in pornography, and the task force's chairperson was Adam TorbICKi, Chairperson (Poland)*, Arnaud Perrier (Switzerland).
Journal ArticleDOI
Association Between Thrombolytic Treatment and the Prognosis of Hemodynamically Stable Patients With Major Pulmonary Embolism Results of a Multicenter Registry
Stavros Konstantinides,Annette Geibel,Manfred Olschewski,Fritz Heinrich,Klaus D Grosser,Klaus Rauber,Stein Iversen,Matthias Redecker,J Kienast,Hanjörg Just,Wolfgang Kasper +10 more
TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that thrombolysis may favorably affect the clinical outcome of hemodynamically stable patients with major pulmonary embolism.
