Circulatory failure in acute pulmonary embolism. 1984

Y Ozier, and O Dubourg, and J C Farcot, and M Bazin, and F Jardin, and A Margairaz

Circulatory failure occurs in about 10% of patients with pulmonary embolism, resulting from a massive obstruction of the pulmonary arterial bed. Hemodynamic and respiratory features are well established; they involve precapillary pulmonary hypertension, low cardiac output state, elevated filling pressure for the right ventricle, and venous admixture. More recently, two-dimensional echocardiography permitted the visualization of pulmonary artery and right heart enlargement, reduced right ventricular ejection fraction, and tricuspid regurgitation. Evaluated by this latter means, left ventricular systolic function appeared unchanged, but diastolic function might be reduced by septal bulging.

D002303 Cardiac Output, Low A state of subnormal or depressed cardiac output at rest or during stress. It is a characteristic of CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES, including congenital, valvular, rheumatic, hypertensive, coronary, and cardiomyopathic. The serious form of low cardiac output is characterized by marked reduction in STROKE VOLUME, and systemic vasoconstriction resulting in cold, pale, and sometimes cyanotic extremities.
