Summary

This registry is designed to understand acoustic pulse thrombolysis (APT) treatment regimens used as standard of care globally for pulmonary embolism. The registry will include individuals who have already received the APT treatment and those that will undergo APT treatment.

  • PE symptom duration ≤ 14 days
  • Troponin elevation

Retrospective Exclusion Criteria:

  • Enrollment into the OPTALYSE PE study

Prospective Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female ≥ 18 years of age and ≤ 80 years of age
  • RV/LV ≥ 1.0 from diagnostic computed tomographic angiography (CTA) or echocardiogram
  • PE symptom duration ≤ 14 days
