Penumbra says STORM-PE subset links wearable step data with 6-minute walk test recovery in pulmonary embolism patients
  • Penumbra disclosed a STORM-PE randomized trial subset analysis linking wearable activity data with clinic-based functional recovery in pulmonary embolism.
  • Results were presented this week at the VIVA meeting.
  • The analysis supports that clinical gains seen with computer-assisted vacuum thrombectomy with anticoagulation translate into day-to-day recovery.
  • Correlations were strongest around the 30-day follow-up, supporting wearables as a practical complement for future PE trial endpoints.
  • Separately, an interim STRIKE-PE analysis of 1,000 patients was presented at VEINS, indicating sustained functional and quality-of-life improvements at one year.
