What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Pulmonary Embolism (PE) is a common and serious disease. Indeed, the annual incidence is 1/1000 patients per year and the 3-month mortality is 10%, which is twice that of myocardial infarction. The treatment is based on anticoagulation for at least 3 months. However, after three or six months of anticoagulation, persistent dyspnea and impairment of quality of life are observed in at least 30% of cases. Several mechanisms explain dyspnea and impairment of quality of life after PE, such as residual pulmonary artery obstruction, exercise deconditioning, depressive syndrome or development of a cardio-respiratory pathology. Pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) has been shown to be effective on dyspnea and quality of life and is included in the therapeutic management of chronic respiratory diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) or pulmonary fibrosis. Furthermore, PR is also use
