Pulmonary Embolism Short-term Clinical Outcomes Registry (PE-SCOR)

The overall goal of this clinical research study is to prospectively assess primary outcomes
related to pulmonary embolism (PE) that occur immediately (within 5 days) and within 30 days.
The secondary goal is to compare validated prediction models and a modified European Society
of Cardiology (ESC) approach that is primarily right ventricle dysfunction (RVD) driven with
clinical risk assessment being secondary, and with primary outcomes of clinical deterioration
within 5 days.

The investigators wish to develop the Pulmonary Embolism Short-term Clinical Outcomes
Registry (PE-SCOR). The investigators also wish to determine the incidence of death and
circulatory and respiratory deterioration, and administration of reperfusion therapy within 5
days in PE patients. The study will also evaluate the sensitivity, specificity and positive
and negative predictive values of each RVD assessment option. The investigators will also
derive a prediction model for PE patients for the primary outcome within five days. Finally,
investigators will determine the functional outcomes of PE patients 30 days after PE.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Patients 18 years or older with image confirmed acute pulmonary embolism diagnosed
within 12 hours of ED presentation will be eligible for enrollment.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients who refuse consent for 30-day clinical contact and follow-up.
