Venous thromboembolism associated with COVID-19, particularly acute pulmonary embolism, may represent a challenging and complex clinical scenario. The benefits of having a multidisciplinary pulmonary embolism response team (PERT) can be important during such a pandemic. The aim of PERT in the care of such patients is to provide fast, appropriate, multidisciplinary, team-based approach, with the common goal to tailor the best therapeutic decision making, prioritizing always optimal patient care, especially given lack of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines in the setting of COVID-19, which potentially confers a significant prothrombotic state. Herein, we would like to briefly emphasize the importance and potential critical role of PERT in the care of patients in which these two devastating illnesses are present together.
与 COVID-19 相关的静脉血栓栓塞症，尤其是急性肺栓塞，可能代表着具有挑战性和复杂性的临床情况。在大流行期间，拥有多学科肺栓塞反应团队 (PERT) 的好处可能非常重要。PERT 在这些患者护理中的目标是提供快速、适当、多学科、以团队为基础的方法，共同目标是制定最佳治疗决策，始终优先考虑最佳患者护理，特别是在 COVID-19 背景下缺乏基于证据的临床实践指南的情况下，这可能会导致明显的血栓形成状态。在此，我们想简要强调 PERT 在同时存在这两种破坏性疾病的患者护理中的重要性和潜在关键作用。
