Pulmonary Embolism Treatment: Hemodynamic Compromise Recommendations

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

I would recommend thrombolytic therapy as the primary treatment for pulmonary embolism with hemodynamic instability. This intervention involves the administration of clot-dissolving medications to restore blood flow and alleviate the potentially life-threatening condition. Thrombolytic therapy aims to rapidly dissolve the blood clot causing the blockage in the pulmonary arteries, thereby improving hemodynamic stability. It is crucial to promptly initiate this treatment under the supervision of a healthcare professional to minimize the risk of complications and optimize patient outcomes.

Thanks
