Acute pulmonary embolism(APE) in operation room is a constant,lethal but treatable disease.A fast determination of APE in an operation room is currently difficult due to a non-specificity on its signs,symptoms,electrocardiograph findings,arterial blood gas abnormalities and chest X-rays.Clinically,an APE can automatically originate from a small and clinically asymptomatic embolus to massive,proximal emboli with shock during a scheduled surgery period.An accurate,brief and prompt diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for APE in a peri-operation period is crucial for anesthesiologists to make a decision on an appropriate clinical intervention to improve patients’ outcomes.The purpose of this mini-review article is to illuminate a fast-track diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for APE patients in a perioperative period through a hybrid of the high sensitive and high specific viable diagnostic modality of D-dimer assay in conjunction with necessary emergent pulmonary angiography(EPA),including digital subtraction angiography(DSA),or a spiral computed tomography angiography(sCTA) for APE patients’ diagnosis and treatment during operation.The postulated fast-track diagnostic and therapeutic strategy can effectively confirm or exclude highly suspected APE and simultaneously provide fast therapeutic opportunities for APE patients at an operative period.
