Prediction of long-term complications of venous thromboembolism
We showed that a very recent developed screening algorithm, the InShape II algorithm, is sensitive and reproducible for detecting early CTEPH in the course of an acute PE. Beside this, most patient who were diagnosed with CTEPH in the course of an acute PE already showed signs of CTEPH on the initial CT scan made for PE diagnosis.
In the last chapter we focus on PTS in the course of a DVT.

We have reviewed the literature on arguments for and against routine screening of CTEPH in patients after an episode of an acute PE. The incidence of CTEPH is relevant in this evaluation. In a systematic review and meta-analysis we showed a CTEPH incidence of 0.56% in all comers and of ~3% in the survivors.

In the last chapter we focus on PTS in the course of a DVT. In patients included in the MEGA database the 0-1 year incidence was 21.8%, after 8 years of follow-up an additional 7% developed PTS. During follow-up PTS symptoms improves in almost 70% of patients.Show less
