Résumé
Pulmonary emboli (PE) is a life threatening condition that discovered in many patients only "post mortem". Sub massive and massive PE that led to hemodynamic collapse characterized by right ventricular (RV) dysfunction, leading to a higher risk of death. To assess the ability to predict in hospital death of patients with acute PE, using a non-gated computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA), based on the dimensions of the right ventricle. A retrospective study that analyzed CTPA images of patients admitted with acute PE during the years 2012-2017. The cohort study included 300 patients with documented acute PE, among them 255 hospitalized in medical (non-intensive care unit) wards, 45 were hospitalized in an intensive care unit (ICU). Among the 45 patients admitted to the ICU 8% died. Larger RV diameters predicted mortality (OR = 10.14, 95% CI [1.09-93.86]) as well as lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements (p = 0.001 and 0.01). Among the 255 patients admitted to the Internal Medicine Ward 7% died. Older age (p = 0.028), sepsis and cancer (both p < 0.001), high WBCs count (p < 0.001), and renal failure (p < 0.001) predicted death. Lower blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) (p < 0.001, 0.008), older age (p < 0.007), sepsis (p < 0.001), cancer (p = 0.006), higher WBCs count (p < 0.001), and impaired renal function (p < 0.001) predicted death in patients admitted with acute PE. Clinical parameters and hematological parameters could predict death of patients admitted with acute PE. RV diameter, measured by the non-ECG gated CTPA, had an additive predictive value for patients who admitted to the ICU.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Pulmonary emboli (PE) is a life threatening condition that discovered in many patients only "post mortem". Sub massive and massive PE that led to hemodynamic collapse characterized by right ventricular (RV) dysfunction, leading to a higher risk of death.
OBJECTIVES
OBJECTIVE
To assess the ability to predict in hospital death of patients with acute PE, using a non-gated computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA), based on the dimensions of the right ventricle.
METHODS
METHODS
A retrospective study that analyzed CTPA images of patients admitted with acute PE during the years 2012-2017. The cohort study included 300 patients with documented acute PE, among them 255 hospitalized in medical (non-intensive care unit) wards, 45 were hospitalized in an intensive care unit (ICU).
RESULTS
RESULTS
Among the 45 patients admitted to the ICU 8% died. Larger RV diameters predicted mortality (OR = 10.14, 95% CI [1.09-93.86]) as well as lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements (p = 0.001 and 0.01). Among the 255 patients admitted to the Internal Medicine Ward 7% died. Older age (p = 0.028), sepsis and cancer (both p < 0.001), high WBCs count (p < 0.001), and renal failure (p < 0.001) predicted death. Lower blood pressure (systolic and diastolic) (p < 0.001, 0.008), older age (p < 0.007), sepsis (p < 0.001), cancer (p = 0.006), higher WBCs count (p < 0.001), and impaired renal function (p < 0.001) predicted death in patients admitted with acute PE.
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
Clinical parameters and hematological parameters could predict death of patients admitted with acute PE. RV diameter, measured by the non-ECG gated CTPA, had an additive predictive value for patients who admitted to the ICU.
