Post-PE impairment, defined as deterioration (compared to discharge or previous follow-up visit), or persistence, in a) echocardiographic parameters of right ventricular (RV) dysfunction (defined by abnormal RV basal diameter or abnormal right atrial end systolic area or abnormal tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion or presence of pericardial effusion) and/or pulmonary hypertension (defined by abnormal estimated right atrial pressure or elevated systolic tricuspid regurgitant velocity), and clinical, functional parameters of RV failure (new appearance of symptoms of heart failure or abnormal six-minute walking distance or elevated brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) plasma levels or abnormal peak O2 uptake on cardiopulmonary exercise testing)
