Difference between Pulmonary embolism and Syncope (medicine)

Pulmonary embolism vs. Syncope (medicine)

Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a blockage of an artery in the lungs by a substance that has moved from elsewhere in the body through the bloodstream (embolism). Syncope, also known as fainting, is a loss of consciousness and muscle strength characterized by a fast onset, short duration, and spontaneous recovery.

Similarities between Pulmonary embolism and Syncope (medicine)

Pulmonary embolism and Syncope (medicine) have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bradycardia, Cardiology, Choosing Wisely, Cough, CT scan, Electrocardiography, Hypotension, Pulmonary hypertension, Stroke, Tachycardia.

Bradycardia

Bradycardia is a condition wherein an individual has a very slow heart rate, typically defined as a resting heart rate of under 60 beats per minute (BPM) in adults.

CT scan

A CT scan, also known as computed tomography scan, makes use of computer-processed combinations of many X-ray measurements taken from different angles to produce cross-sectional (tomographic) images (virtual "slices") of specific areas of a scanned object, allowing the user to see inside the object without cutting.
