Risk Stratification and Prognostic Value of Right Ventricular Dysfunction Screening Using Transthoracic Echocardiography in Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Risk Stratification and Prognostic Value of Right Ventricular Dysfunction Screening Using Transthoracic Echocardiography in Acute Pulmonary Embolism

This observational study evaluates right ventricular dysfunction in patients with acute pulmonary embolism using transthoracic echocardiography and assesses its prognostic significance and risk stratification value.

This observational study evaluates right ventricular dysfunction in patients with acute pulmonary embolism using transthoracic echocardiography and assesses its prognostic significance and risk stratification value.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients aged 18 years and older.
• Patients with a confirmed diagnosis of acute pulmonary embolism.
• Patients who underwent transthoracic echocardiographic assessment for right ventricular dysfunction.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients younger than 18 years.
• Patients with incomplete clinical data.
• Patients who did not undergo transthoracic echocardiography.
