This book provides an up-to-date review of the use of thrombolytic
therapy in the treatment of acute pulmonary embolism. It discusses
the mechanisms of thrombosis; pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
of the most commonly used fibrinolytics; evidence-based results
from multicenter control trials in which thrombolytic treatment was
administered; criteria by which pulmonary embolism patients
requiring thrombolysis are identified; and the use of thrombolytic
therapy in special situations such as in in-transit thrombus and
pregnancy. Focusing on peripheral intravenous thrombolysis, which
can performed safely and effectively in emergency departments,
hospital wards, and intensive critical care units in tertiary and
community hospitals, Thrombolysis in Pulmonary Embolism is a
valuable resource for cardiologists, pulmonologists, and
internists.
