The hospitalist FINALLY arrived and talked through a plan. We think we're going to have radiology go in and go directly to the vein with a catheter to try and get at the clots themselves. He said that in many of his patients, the result has been dramatic, though of course there are risks. It's a two-day process, and she'll need to spend the night inbetween back in ICU, but there's not much choice -- they're just not dissolving quickly enough, and without the procedure, it could be weeks or months. So, wve got a plan.
