Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Reduction of RV dysfunction

    Reduction of RV dysfunction as evidenced by a reduction in RVSP and or a reduction in RV/LV ratio measured by echo at baseline and again at 48 ±6 hours post EKOS catheter removal

    48 hours post catheter removal

Interventions

Ultrasound catheter-directed thrombolysis.
