a patient with PE and without hemodynamic compromise...what would be the most appropriate management- embolectomy or thrombolytics ??
and if with hemodynamic compromise then what is the most appropriate- embolectomy or thrombolytics ?
this pt. has not been recently operated or does not have any other contraindications for thrombolytics !
hope to get this cleared today. thanks.

thrombilitics: after the ABC..., then, in this case, to apply a less invasive measure is correct.

IVC if there are recurrent PE in a pt or if anticoagulation is contraindicated for any reason in a stable or unstable pt.
