What is Embolism?
Detached intravascular gaseous, liquid or solid mass carried by blood from its site of origin to another site
Types of embolism
Pulmonary thromboembolism
Systemic thromboembolism
Fat embolism
Air embolism
Pulmonary thromboembolism originates most commonly from
DVT of lower extremities
Systemic thromboembolism most commonly originates from
Mural thrombi within heart chambers
Rest from aortic atherosclerosis…
Fat embolism can occurs after
Long bone fracturing
Fat embolism leads to
Respiratory distress
Neurological symptoms
Anemia

Shock=
Systemic hypoperfusion of tissues (cellular hypoxia)
Causes for cardiogenic shock
Infarction
