April 13, 2026 — Penumbra, Inc. announced 90-day results of the landmark STORM-PE randomized controlled trial (RCT), which found that patients with acute intermediate-high risk pulmonary embolism (PE) who were treated with computer assisted vacuum thrombectomy (CAVT) plus anticoagulation achieved greater functional improvement, including walking significantly further and a higher proportion of patients achieving NYHA Class I (no physical limitations), compared to anticoagulation alone.
