Abstract

This literature review aims to investigate contemporary strategies for the secondary prevention of Pulmonary Embolism (PE). The research encompassed recent studies, focusing on anticoagulation, including novel oral anticoagulants, surgical interventions, and advanced diagnostic methods. Emphasizing the importance of personalized treatment considering individual factors, the review underscores the need for additional studies to validate conclusions and inform more robust clinical guidelines. This review contributes to an in-depth understanding of secondary prevention strategies for PE, highlighting the integrated and personalized approach as crucial for optimizing clinical outcomes and reducing PE recurrence.
