Obesity-Linked Gaps in Pulmonary Embolism Management – Shared by Zain Khalpey

Zain Khalpey, Chief Medical AI Officer, Chair of Applied Clinical AI, Director, Khalpey AI Lab at ATARI AI, posted on LinkedIn:

”Obesity changes everything about pulmonary embolism from diagnosis to drug dosing.

This new JACC review highlights how body size complicates imaging accuracy, influences anticoagulant and interventional choices, and even shapes outcomes through the “obesity paradox.”

The takeaway is clear: one size fits all guidance doesn’t work.

We need pragmatic, obesity-aware protocols and updated guidelines that reflect real world patients.

Full review here.
