Diuretic vs. placebo in intermediate-risk acute pulmonary embolism: a randomized clinical trial.

In normotensive patients with intermediate-risk PE, a single bolus of furosemide improved the primary efficacy outcome at 24 h and maintained stable renal function. In the furosemide group, urine output increased, without a demonstrable improvement in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, or arterial oxygenation.ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02268903.
