Elad Asher: Does Opening the Clot Change How a Patient Feels Three Months Later?

Elad Asher, Interventional cardiologist, Head of ICCU, Deputy Director of the Heart Center at SZMC, and Associate Professor of Cardiology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, shared a post on X about a recent article by Rachel P. Rosovsky et al., published in JACC: Cardiovascular Interventions, adding:

“Does opening the clot change how a patient feels three months later?

STORM-PE 90-day outcomes: 100 patients with intermediate-high risk PE at 22 sites, randomized to computer-assisted vacuum thrombectomy plus anticoagulation, or anticoagulation alone (JACC Cardiovasc Interv).”

Title: Mechanical Thrombectomy Versus Anticoagulation Alone in Intermediate-High Risk PE: Improved Functional 90-Day Outcomes in STORM-PE RCT
