NCT05792397

Brief Summary

As a multicenter prospective single-arm clinical study, the investigators plan to recruit patients with acute pulmonary intravascular embolization from nationwide multi-center hospital organizations in China. The investigators use the 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 to evaluating the efficacy and safety of this novel system in the treatment of patients with pulmonary intravascular embolization disease.

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.

    48 hours after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • instrument performance evaluation

    intraoperative period

  • the success rate of surgery

    intraoperative period

  • pulmonary artery pressure changes before and after operation value

    before the pulmonary intravascular embolization removal procedure began and after the embolization removal operation end immediately

  • values of arterial oxygen partial pressure changes before and after operation

    before the pulmonary intravascular embolization removal procedure began and 14 days after surgery

  • postoperative clinical deterioration rate in 48 hours after surgery

    48 hours after surgery]

  • +2 more secondary outcomes
