This retrospective study found increased use of unfractionated heparin (UFH) relative to low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) over time, despite guidelines recommending LMWH or DOACs as first-line treatment for most patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE).
Anticoagulation is the cornerstone of managing acute pulmonary embolism (PE), but initial management strategies in the intensive care unit (ICU) for sicker patients* with acute PE lack consensus guidelines. This reviews the available evidence and provides guidance.
