Description

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is ranked the third most common cause of cardiovascular death, after myocardial infarction and stroke. The management of acute PE requires a multidisciplinary team approach. Since the implementation of the Pulmonary Embolism Response Team (PERT) in 2019, one thousand patients have been evaluated. Our objective was to evaluate the clinical characteristics and outcomes in this population according to gender.
