A comparative study of anticoagulation combined with different catheter-directed thrombolysis strategies (urokinase catheter-directed vs. alteplase infusion) in the treatment of intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism
For intermediate-risk APE, catheter-directed UK thrombolysis and intraprocedural rt-PA infusion offer comparable efficacy and safety. However, the rt-PA regimen may be more advantageous due to its avoidance of prolonged catheter placement.
