An International Pulmonary Embolism Registry Using EKOS
Purpose
This registry is designed to understand acoustic pulse thrombolysis (APT) treatment regimens used as standard of care globally for pulmonary embolism. The registry will include individuals who have already received the APT treatment and those that will undergo APT treatment.

Detailed Description
For the prospective arm of the registry, a physician will have selected the APT procedure for the treatment of pulmonary embolism. The APT treatment and follow-up assessments are per clinical judgement and institutional standard of care which may vary at each clinical site. For the retrospective arm of the registry, the investigators will gather data from consecutive cases of individuals who received the APT treatment for pulmonary embolism. Specific baseline, treatment, and long-term health information is collected and de-identified.
