Brief Summary
For a prospective, single-arm clinical study, this study plans to recruit patients with acute pulmonary intravascular embolization, use production of transcatheter pulmonary artery bolt system which named 'TwiFlow-Thrombectomy Catheter System' developed by the MorningSide (NanTong) medical device Co., LTD. on pulmonary artery interventional therapy, for evaluating the efficacy and safety of this novel system in the treatment of patients with pulmonary intravascular embolization disease.

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Right Ventricular/Left Ventricular decline from baseline to 48 hours after surgery
Right Ventricular (RV) and Left Ventricular (LV) were recorded during the screening period and 48 hours after surgery by echocardiography or pulmonary artery CT (CTPA), and RV/LV and RV/LV reduction were calculated. The target RV/LV reduction from baseline to 48 hours after surgery was at least 0.2
before and 48 hours after surgery
The incidence of major adverse events (MAE) within 48 hours after surgery
The incidence of major adverse events (MAE) during and 48 hours after surgery was observed and recorded, and the incidence of MAE was calculated (referring to the definition of MAE). The target incidence of MAE 48 hours after surgery was less than 25%. MAE events defined as those occurring within 48 hours of treatment include device-related death, massive bleeding, pulmonary vascular injury, and cardiac injury. Haemorrhage: Disabling or life-threatening bleeding, or severe haemodynamic injury. Pulmonary vascular injury: Defined as perforation or injury of a major pulmonary artery branch requiring surgical open surgical intervention. Cardiac injury: Defined as heart injury requiring surgical open surgical intervention.
