Video Summary
The video discusses Catheter-Directed Lysis (CDL) as a primary treatment for intermediate and high-risk pulmonary embolism over the past decade. The procedure is generally straightforward, with bleeding as the main complication, mitigated by modern protocols. Four FDA-approved catheters are highlighted, including ECOS and Bashir. The ECOS has an ultrasonic component, while Bashir employs a pharmacomechanical approach. The presentation underscores the importance of protocol-driven placement for consistent results and emphasizes pre-ordering alteplase TPA to avoid delays. Risk stratification of patients and personalized strategies are crucial for effective treatment.
