ABSTRACT: Background
Mechanical thrombectomy offers a promising alternative to thrombolytic-based approaches for reducing thrombus burden and right heart strain in acute pulmonary embolism. This pivotal Food and Drug Administration-approval trial evaluated the safety and efficacy of the Symphony Thrombectomy System (Imperative Care, Inc, Campbell, CA) in acute intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism.Methods
Patients with intermediate-risk pulmonary embolism (systolic blood pressure ≥90 mm Hg; right ventricle-to-left ventricle ratio >0.9) were enrolled without roll-ins. The primary safety end point was the rate of major adverse events within 48 hours, defined as a composite of all-cause major bleeding, device-related mortality, and serious device-related events, adjudicated by an academi
