28 lut 2024 · Pathophysiology. Pulmonary embolism (PE) occurs when clots break off and enter the pulmonary circulation. Pulmonary emboli are typically multiple, with the lower lobes being involved more frequently than the upper and bilateral lung involvement being more common. Large emboli tend to obstruct the main pulmonary artery, causing saddle embolus ...
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is one of the most common etiologies of cardiovascular mortality. It could be linked to several risk factors including advanced age. The pathogenesis of PE is dictated by the Virchows triad that includes venous stasis, ’. endothelial injury, and a hypercoagulable state.
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the occlusion of pulmonary arteries by thrombi that originate elsewhere, typically in the large veins of the legs or pelvis. Risk factors for pulmonary embolism are conditions that impair venous return, conditions that cause endothelial injury or dysfunction, and underlying hypercoagulable states.
Epidemiology and global burden of infective endocarditis. Epidemiology and global burden of peripheral arterial disease and aortic aneurysms. ECG patterns related to arrhythmias and sudden death: channelopathies, early repolarization, and pre-excitation. ECG in syncope, palpitations, dyspnoea, and chest pain.
Pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) or pulmonary embolism (PE) is an obstruction. of pulmonary arteries due to: Thrombus. Pulmonary embolism. Can be due to any material. Most often thought of as blood clot. Local formation of clot in pulmonary vasculature. Primary pulmonary thrombosis. Multiple factors involved in pathophysiology of PTE.
