Relationship between Computed Tompgraphy Pulmonary Angiography Findings and Clinical Findings Based on Wells Score in Acute Pulmonary Thromboembolism

Background and Objective: Acute pulmonary thromboembolism is an emergency disease that can lead to mortality if not diagnosed on time. Proper triage of patients based on clinical findings and the Wells Score will have a significant impact on the medical team's decision-making and patient management. Materials and Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on 300 patients selected by the census sampling method. The patients were suspected of acute pulmonary thromboembolism referring to Farshchian Heart Hospital in Hamadan, Iran, within October 2017-March 2020. The cases considered a candidate for computed tomography (CT) pulmonary angiography were selected and compared regarding CT pulmonary angiography results and the risk of embolism based on Wells
