Zusammenfassung: | Introduction: pulmonary thromboembolism is a clinical situation triggered by the obstruction of the
pulmonary arteries by a thrombus in situ or from the venous system.
Objective: to characterize deceased patients with a diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism treated at
the "Dr. Leon Cuervo Rubio” Teaching Surgical Clinical Hospital.
Method: observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study of deceased patients diagnosed with
pulmonary thromboembolism, treated at the “Dr. León Cuervo Rubio” Teaching Surgical Clinical Hospital
between January 2018 and December 2019. The universe consisted of 63 patients with a pathological
diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism, working with all the patients.
Results: There was a predominance of male patients (63,49 %) and age groups between 71 and 80 years
(36,51 %), with age over 65 years (80,95 %) and immobility due to more than 72 hours (49,21 %) as the
most common risk factors. Predominance of patients with tachycardia (98,41 %) and tachypnea (96,82 %)
as clinical manifestations was found. 65,7 % of the patients presented occlusion of large caliber branches,
and pulmonary infarction in 89% of the patients.
Conclusions: It is concluded that male patients, past the sixth decade of life and immobilized for several
days, are likely to die in the event of pulmonary thromboembolism; presenting tachycardia and tachypnea
as clinical manifestations. Occlusion of large caliber branches, as well as pulmonary infarction, occur to
a great extent in patients.
Introducción: el tromboembolismo pulmonar es una situación clínica desencadenada por la obstrucción
de las arterias pulmonares por un trombo in situ o procedente del sistema venoso.
Objetivo: caracterizar a los pacientes fallecidos con diagnóstico de tromboembolismo pulmonar
atendidos en el Hospital Clínico Quirúrgico Docente “Dr. León Cuervo Rubio”.
Método: estudio observacional, descriptivo y transversal a los pacientes fallecidos con diagnóstico de
tromboembolismo pulmonar, atendidos en el Hospital Clínico Quirúrgico Docente “Dr. León Cuervo
Rubio” entre enero de 2018 y diciembre de 2019. El universo estuvo constituido por 63 pacientes con
diagnóstico anatomopatológico de tromboembolismo pulmonar, se trabajó con la totalidad de los
pacientes.
Resultados: se encontró predominio de pacientes del sexo masculino (63,49 %) y de los grupos etarios
entre 71 y 80 años (36,51 %), con la edad mayor de 65 años (80,95 %) y la inmovilidad por más de 72
