- Page the PERT p9956 (autopage in Cerner) for massive, intermediate risk PE, and cardiac arrest with high suspicion of PE when considering thrombolytics, or if questions arise regarding acute PE/DVT management
- PERT generally requires CTA to confirm size/location of PE (systemic tPA, intravascular intervention, thrombolysis), but TEE may be acceptable
- Activation of PERT will lead to a multidisciplinary conference for most optimal care for patient, ED attending can attend
- Help with treatment decisions and rapid diagnostics
- PERT members include on call members from pulmonary critical care, IR, CT surgery
