Episode # 677  •  22 Sept 2026

Pulmonary Embolism: Catheter-Based Therapy & Importance of Blood Return

As new guidelines redefine risk stratification for pulmonary embolism (PE), emerging technologies are also changing what it means to achieve procedural success. On this episode of the BackTable Podcast, interventional radiologist Dr. Julie Bulman (BIDMC) and interventional cardiologist Dr. Jay Giri (Penn Medicine) join host Dr. Chris Beck to discuss the evolving frameworks and technologies redefining standards for catheter-directed treatment of intermediate- and high-risk PE. They discuss the role of multidisciplinary PERT teams, patient selection, the impact of new thrombectomy devices, and why autologous blood return is a growing consideration for procedural success.
