Zusammenfassung

Jährlich versterben schätzungsweise 40.000 Patienten in Deutschland an einer akuten Lungenembolie (LE). Die neue (2008) ESC-Leitlinie stellt den klinischen Schweregrad, nämlich das LE-bedingte Todes- oder Komplikationsrisiko, in den Vordergrund empfohlener Management-Konzepte. So stellen hämodynamisch instabile Patienten mit Verdacht auf Hochrisiko-LE einen medizinischen Notfall dar. Die CT-Pulmonalisangiographie (CTPA) oder Echokardiographie kann die LE bestätigen und die Indikation zur Thrombolyse/Embolektomie stellen. Bei normotensiven Patienten (Nicht-Hochrisiko-LE) werden diagnostische Algorithmen auf der Basis der Multidetektor-CTPA bevorzugt. Die initiale Antikoagulation sollte aus niedermolekularem Heparin oder Fondaparinux bestehen. Allerdings profitieren möglicherweise einige normotensive Patienten mit RV-Dysfunktion und/oder myokardialer Schädigung von einer frühen thrombolytischen Behandlung (mittleres Risiko). Die Dauer einer Sekundärprophylaxe (oralen Antikoagulation) nach akuter LE sollte mindestens 3 Monate betragen. Bei stabiler Antikoagulation und niedrigem Blutungsrisiko ist nach unprovozierter LE eine unbefristete Weiterführung der Therapie zu erwägen.
