Although appreciable advances have been made in understanding epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment, acute pulmonary embolism (PE) is still largely undetected and untreated. The aim of our study was to ascertain whether the rate of correct clinical diagnosis of acute PE has changed in recent years (from 1989 to 1995) and, possibly, to identify factors that might contribute to the underdiagnosis of the disease.
尽管在了解急性肺栓塞(PE)的流行病学、诊断和治疗方面已取得显著进展,但急性肺栓塞在很大程度上仍未被发现和治疗。我们研究的目的是确定近年来(1989年至1995年)急性PE的正确临床诊断率是否发生了变化,并可能确定可能导致该疾病诊断不足的因素。
