Difference between Embolism and Intravenous therapy

Embolism vs. Intravenous therapy

An embolism is the lodging of an embolus, a blockage-causing piece of material, inside a blood vessel. Intravenous therapy (IV) is a therapy that delivers liquid substances directly into a vein (intra- + ven- + -ous).

Similarities between Embolism and Intravenous therapy

Embolism and Intravenous therapy have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Air embolism, Carotid artery, Circulatory system, Embolization, Heart failure, Hypertension, Injury, Therapy, Thrombus, Vein.

Air embolism

An air embolism, also known as a gas embolism, is a blood vessel blockage caused by one or more bubbles of air or other gas in the circulatory system.

Circulatory system

The circulatory system, also called the cardiovascular system or the vascular system, is an organ system that permits blood to circulate and transport nutrients (such as amino acids and electrolytes), oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, and blood cells to and from the cells in the body to provide nourishment and help in fighting diseases, stabilize temperature and pH, and maintain homeostasis.

Heart failure

Heart failure (HF), often referred to as congestive heart failure (CHF), is when the heart is unable to pump sufficiently to maintain blood flow to meet the body's needs.

Hypertension

Hypertension (HTN or HT), also known as high blood pressure (HBP), is a long-term medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is persistently elevated.
