Children with Pulmonary Embolism
(10/14/24) PEDSnet Data Coordinating Center
Pediatric pulmonary embolism (PE) research has been limited by rarity at individual centers and a lack of multi-center data sources to investigate treatments and outcomes. The goal of this work was to develop a computable phenotype and utilize it in PEDSnet to compare management strategies and outcomes in a validated cohort of children with PE to improve PE care in children.

Central Michigan University; Children's Hospital of Philadelphia
Study to test the classification accuracy of an algorithm that has been previously validated in adult pulmonary embolism (PE) patients (“ASPECT”). The algorithm was used to identify a pediatric PE cohort from EHR and evaluate the accuracy of diagnostic and treatment code combinations using EHR data to diagnose pediatric PE at a single center, the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
