Summary

This study looks at 210 adults with a serious type of blood clot in the lungs (intermediate high-risk pulmonary embolism). It compares three approaches: a procedure to suction out the clot, a low dose of clot-busting medicine, or standard blood thinners with the option for stronger medicine if needed. The goal is to see which method reduces clot size best within 2-4 days.
