RecruitingEARLY Phase 1Ages 18 Years - anyAllMassachusetts General Hospital

In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

A study of how supplemental oxygen helps patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). Hypothesis: Oxygen affects right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) primarily by relieving hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction and reducing pulmonary pressure (PA) pressure, and that this process is metabolically driven.
