About this study

This study collected clinical, laboratory, and CT parameters of acute patients with acute pulmonary embolism from admission. The outcomes of interest were defined as the occurrence of adverse outcomes within 30 days after admission into hospital.

Eligible patients were randomized in some ratio into derivation and validation cohorts. The derivation cohort was used to develop and evaluate a multivariable logistic regression model for predicting the outcomes of interest. The discriminatory power was evaluated by comparing the nomogram to the established risk stratification systems. The consistency of the nomogram was evaluated using the validation cohort.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • age of ≥ 18 years and a PE diagnosis based on CT pulmonary angiography

Exclusion criteria

  • pregnancy
  • reception of reperfusion treatment before admission
  • missing data regarding CT parameters, echocardiography, cardiac troponin I (c-Tn I), and N-terminal-pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) levels.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Adverse outcomes

    Time frame: 7 days and 30 days

    The outcomes of interest were defined as the occurrence of adverse outcomes within 30 days after admission. Adverse outcomes were defined as PE-related deaths, the need for mechanical ventilation, the need for cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and the need for life-saving vasopressor and reperfusion treatment.
