Overview
Join us for an insightful webinar designed to enhance an understanding of the latest developments in pulmonary embolism (PE) management.
Moderated by Prof Felix Mahfoud (University Hospital Basel, CH), the faculty will explore current guidelines with a critical eye, particularly where gaps may exist, such as in managing intermediate-risk patients. Featuring findings from the PEERLESS study, this session will introduce a practical framework for identifying candidates for intervention. The webinar will also spotlight best practices in uniting referring physicians with treaters to improve patient outcomes.
Register now to gain insights into integrating the PEERLESS data into daily practice and how to offer appropriate interventional options to your patients.
