Furthermore, 2 studies did not report outcomes at 3 months and could not be used in our pooled meta-analysis [12,13].…”

“…Patients in the low risk PES index classes have a risk for 90-day all-cause mortality of f1% [33]. Other studies used different clinical risk scores [20,26,34], the laboratory value N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide [4], or imaging parameters, such as the size of the embolus [23,27] or the size of the perfusion defect [24]. The proportions of patients that could be selected for outpatient treatment varied among the studies from 30% to 55%, depending on the extensiveness of the selection method.…”
