Grand round: Revisiting the threshold: Age-adjusted D-dimer, avoiding unnecessary CTPA, and the latest pulmonary embolism guidelines

Thursday 30 July, 12.30-1.30pm

Undergraduate lecture theatre, Barnes Building, Salford Royal

Dr Hassan Rehman’s presentation will discuss findings from a re-audit of CTPA use in suspected pulmonary embolism, focusing on the application of age-adjusted D-dimer, use of pre-test probability tools, and factors contributing to potentially unnecessary imaging. He will also be presenting the latest pulmonary embolism guideline recommendations, with particular emphasis on structured risk stratification, selective use of D-dimer, and appropriate CTPA decision-making in acute care practice.
