The influenceof implantationcava filter on the hospitaltreatment resultsof patients withpulmonary embolismand a high-intermediate risk

The article devoted to the study of pulmonary embolism and a high-intermediate risk in
117 patients ranging in age from 48,5 to 65,3 treated at the Samara regional clinical cardiology
dispensary. An assessment of the influence of implantation cava filter in the inferior vena
cava in addition to standard therapy with heparin or thrombolytic on the hospital treatment
result. It is shown that the implantation of cava filter does not influence on the degree of
pressure reduction in pulmonary artery applied by standard methods of treatment and does
not contribute to the development of a higher incidence of residual pulmonary hypertension
at the time of discharge from hospital, while reducing hospital mortality rate regardless of the
main and common method of treatment (thrombolytic therapy or standard heparin one).
