Case Responses

Death from Massive PE (Case #94)

  • Medical Probability: 7 / 10
  • Medical Error Summary: The new are swelling should have been further investigate.
  • Causation Probability: 6 / 10
  • Causation Summary: Given the patient’s prior history of PE, fatigue, and new arm swelling there is plausible causation. I will of course need more information regarding this case.
  • Expert Summary: I am board certified in cardiology and vascular medicine. I was trained at Johns Hopkins in Vascular Medicine, which include thromboembolic disease (eg PE)
  • Similar Summary: Rarely, but it can be missed if not included the differential diagnosis.
