个人简介
Dr. Kuo is a recognized expert on advanced IVC filter retrieval, venous interventions, thrombolysis, and catheter-directed therapy (CDT) for acute pulmonary embolism (PE). He has written many seminal and award-winning papers, and his work has been cited in all major guidelines on antithrombotic therapy for venous thromboembolism. In 2009, his PE meta-analysis was the first to reveal the safety and effectiveness of CDT as a life-saving procedure for acute massive PE, leading to major changes in treatment guidelines. Dr. Kuo’s landmark meta-analysis eventually led to wide adoption of catheter-directed therapy for acute life-threatening PE – the 3rd leading cause of cardiovascular death. His work has also inspired many investigators to pursue research on percutaneous PE interventions; and today, based on these collective efforts, Catheter-Directed Therapy is now recognized around the world as a valid treatment option for patients with life-threatening PE.
At Stanford, Dr. Kuo also pioneered the field of advanced IVC filter retrieval. Among several innovations, Dr. Kuo invented excimer laser-assisted IVC filter retrieval and he was the first to perform this procedure in humans. For this achievement, he received the Gary J. Becker Young Investigator Award in 2011 from the SIR Foundation. He has also developed new protocols and techniques to percutaneously remove over 22 embedded filter types and to address several major complications associated with each type. Dr. Kuo’s innovations have changed the paradigm on managing embedded vena cava filters and related complications, to help manage a rising epidemic of filter-related morbidity in the United States. His techniques have allowed thousands more patients each year, previously diagnosed with an irretrievable filter, to achieve safe and successful filter removal regardless of dwell time.
