Summary

This trial will test whether monitoring stroke volume with non-invasive blood pressure monitors can help manage patients with acute pulmonary embolism.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 in intensive care with confirmed pulmonary embolism (PE) who can sign a consent form. It's not for those under 120 cm tall, on ECMO, with BMI <20 or >35, atrial fibrillation, certain heart valve issues, scleroderma, or end-stage renal disease.
What is being tested?
The study tests non-invasive blood pressure monitors to measure cardiac output and stroke volume in PE patients. It aims to see how these measurements relate to PE outcomes and change with treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves non-invasive monitoring without drugs or invasive procedures, significant side effects are not expected. However, discomfort from wearing the monitor may occur.
