Masterclass in Acute Pulmonary Embolism Management
14 February 2024, 09:30 to 16:00
Acute PE is the third most common cardiovascular disease after myocardial infarction and stroke. There is emerging evidence that advances in acute treatment strategies for PE can prevent as well as treat haemodynamic collapse, recover right ventricular (RV) dysfunction, and improve survival.
For this study day we are bringing together a multidisciplinary team of experts to share their experiences of current management and future trends in acute pulmonary embolism management care.
About
The Surgical & Interventional Challenges are part of a running series of study days open to all medical and surgical clinicians, interventionalists, undergraduate and postgraduate engineering and medical students, and educators.
The aims for this masterclass are to:
- Create an interactive environment to share from each other’s clinical experience
- Have balanced debates on current and emerging evidence
- Provide practical hands-on experience of current devices and techniques we use for managing this condition.
Events are co-programmed by the Department of Surgical & Interventional Engineering and King Health Partners, together with Guy's and St Thomas' Hospital.
