Christian Schulze, Professor of Medicine at Friedrich-Schiller-University Jena, shared on LinkedIn about a recent article by Kenneth Rosenfield et al, published in NEJM:
”HI-PEITHO presented by Prof.Dr. Stavros Konstantinides at ACC26 and published in the NEJM Group showing strong benefit of catheter-based local thrombolysis in high-intermediate risk patients with pulmonary embolism.
No increase in bleeding events.
Proud to have established this strategy with our team at at Jena University Hospital.”
