A frequent illness, pulmonary embolism can cause considerable morbidity and mortality. Certain inherited and acquired risk factors predispose vulnerable individuals, and the clinical situation can arouse suspicion. Studies involving people who had non-alcoholic fatty liver disease were sought after in the Medline, Pubmed, Embase, NCBI, and Cochrane databases. Analysis was done on incidence, etiology, and treatment options. Because PE presents differently in each patient, it is important to take that into account. The accuracy of the diagnosis decreases with patient age. The diagnosis is difficult because of comorbidities like bronchopneumonia, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), asthma, or chronic fibrosing pulmonary processes The clinical diagnosis of pulmonary embolism is extremely ambiguous because none of the symptoms or signs related to pulmonary embolism are distinctive and can all be caused by other cardiorespiratory illnesses. Patients who have an abnormal perfusion lung scan require more sophisticated care. It can be difficult to diagnose conditions when they have comorbid conditions like bronchopneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, or chronic fibrosing pulmonary processes. The diagnosis of PE can be made quickly in patients who have DVT, though. Thrombosis of the renal, iliac, and inferior vena cava veins, as well as DVT, were the main causes of up to 85% of PE cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
