Can a catheter device clear lung clots and ease heart strain?

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patient is \> 18 and \< 90 years old 2. Clinical signs and symptoms consistent with acute PE 3. PE symptom duration ≤ 14 days 4. CTA evidence of proximal PE (filling defect in at least one main or lobar pulmonary artery as determined by the investigator) 5. CTA evidence of RV/LV ratio \> 0.9 note: based on Investigator's interpretation of RV/LV ratio at baseline; 6. Systolic BP ≥ 90 mmHg note: initial SBP may be \< 90 mmHg but ≥ 80 mmHg if the pressure recovers with volume resuscitation 7. Stable heart rate (HR) \< 130 BPM prior to procedure 8. Patient is deemed medically eligible for interventional procedure(s), per investigator guidelines and clinical judgment. 9. Subject or legally authorized representative (LAR) is willing and able to provide written informed consent prior to receiving any non-standard of care protocol specific procedures Exclusion Criteria: 1. Prior PE \< 180 days from index procedure 2. Thrombolytic use \< 48 hours prior to baseline CTA 3. Pulmonary hypertension with peak pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) \>70 mmHg by right heart catheterization 4. Vasopressor requirement after fluids to keep pressure at ≥90 mmHg 5. FiO2 requirement \>40% or \>6 LPM to keep oxygen saturation \>90% 6. Hematocrit \<28% (Note: hematocrit required within 6 hrs. of index procedure) 7. Platelets count \<100,000/µL 8. eGFR \<30 ml/min per 1.73 m2 9. International normalized ratio (INR) \>3 10. Major trauma injury severity score (ISS) \> 15 11. Presence of intracardiac lead in right ventricle or atrium placed within 6 months prior to screening assessment 12. Cardiovascular or pulmonary surgery within 7 days of index procedure 13. Actively progressing cancer treated by chemotherapeutics 14. Known bleeding diathesis or coagulation disorder 15. Left bundle branch block 16. History of severe or chronic pulmonary arterial hypertension 17. History of chronic left heart disease with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤ 30% 18. History of decompensated heart failure 19. History of underlying lung disease that is oxygen dependent 20. History of chest irradiation 21. History of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) 22. Contraindication to systemic or therapeutic doses of anticoagulants 23. Known anaphylactic reaction to radiographic contrast agents that cannot be pretreated 24. Known residual iliac deep vein thrombosis (DVT), inferior vena cava (IVC) clot or clot in transit (right atrium and/or right ventricle). 25. CTA imaging or other evidence that suggest, in the opinion of the investigator, the Subject is not appropriate for aspiration thrombectomy intervention (e.g., inability to navigate to target location, predominantly chronic clot or non-clot embolus) 26. Life expectancy \<90 days, as determined by investigator 27. Female who is pregnant or nursing 28.
