In this episode, Dr. Laura Avila and Jennifer Vincelli discuss their Blood publication on long-term outcomes of pediatric pulmonary embolism. Among 150 patients, ~30% had incomplete PE resolution and 9% experienced recurrence, but persistent sequelae were rare. True post-PE syndrome occurred in <9%, with only one case of CTEPH. The findings highlight the value of structured follow-up, attention to underlying conditions, and promoting physical activity to counter deconditioning.
