About this study

This is a multi-center, single arm, prospective, observational, real-world study.To collect the real-world clinical outcome data of EkoSonicTM Endovascular System in Chinese patients with acute pulmonary embolism during practical clinical care.

Up to 30 patients will be enrolled in this study and up to 30 patients will be enrolled in this study to observation safety and efficacy.

Who can participate

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

Inclusion criteria

  • The patients with acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism (Symptomatic duration < 14 days).
  • The right ventricle diameter to left ventricle diameter of end-diastolic dimension ratio ≥1 measured by echocardiographic image
  • Investigator has selected the EkoSonicTM Endovascular System with r-tPA to treat patient.

Exclusion criteria

  • The patients with acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism (Symptomatic duration < 14 days).
  • The right ventricle diameter to left ventricle diameter of end-diastolic dimension ratio ≥1 measured by echocardiographic image
  • Investigator has selected the EkoSonicTM Endovascular System with r-tPA to treat patient.

Treatment and study plan

EkoSonicTM Endovascular System

Device

EkoSonicTM Endovascular System and its upgraded versions if applicable The EkoSonicTM Endovascular System is a non-implanted system comprising a sterile, single-use EkoSonic Endovascular Device (Infusion Catheter and Ultrasonic Core) and reusable EKOSTM Control System 4.0(Control Unit, Connector Interface Cable and power cord).

Primary outcomes

  1. RV vs LV end-diastolic diameter ratio

    Time frame: after the completion of EKOS treatment 48 hours compared with the baseline

    The change in the right ventricular end-diastolic diameter to left ventricle end-diastolic diameter ratio at 48hours after the completion of EKOS treatment compared with the baseline.

Secondary outcomes

  1. RV vs LV end-diastolic diameter ratio

    Time frame: after the completion of EKOS treatment 24 hours, Discharge(Approximately within 15 days after completed treatment) , after the completion of EKOS treatment Month 1, Month 3, Month 6, compared to the baseline,through study completion, an average of 1 year

    The change in the right ventricle diameter to left ventricle diameter of end-diastolic dimension ratio at 24h, Discharge(Approximately within 15 days after completed treatment) , after the completion of EKOS treatment Month 1, Month 3, Month 6, compared to the baseline.

  2. PE events after the completion of EKOS treatment

    Time frame: After the completion of EKOS treatment 24hours, 48hours,Discharge(Approximately within 15 days after completed treatment), after the completion of EKOS treatment Month 1, Month 3, Month 6, compared to the baseline

    Recurrent symptomatic PE events after the completion of EKOS treatment.

  3. Serious adverse events related to EKOS or procedure

    Time frame: After enrollment to end of study,through study completion, an average of 1 year

    All of SAE related to EKOS or procedure
