As an Indian mother of two energetic boys, 6 and 3, and working full-time, my days are usually loud, busy, and full of responsibilities. Between office deadlines, school schedules, cooking meals, and managing a home, it often feels like everyone needs a piece of me all the time. For years, I believed that being a “good mother” meant putting others first. In many Asian cultures, we grow up watching our mothers sacrifice endlessly for the family.

Abstract Background Interhospital transfer (IHT) for pulmonary embolism (PE) is increasingly performed to improve access to advanced reperfusion therapies, but it is unclear if IHT times influence overall outcomes. We studied the association between transfer times and outcomes of patients with acute PE requiring IHT. Methods 139 patients with acute PE undergoing IHT to the Mount Sinai Health System between September 2021 and June 2023 were retrospectively studied.
