Difference between Pulmonary embolism and Tachypnea

Pulmonary embolism vs. Tachypnea

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). Tachypnea or tachypnoea is abnormally rapid breathing.

Similarities between Pulmonary embolism and Tachypnea

Pulmonary embolism and Tachypnea have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Breathing, Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, Heart failure, Pleural effusion.

Breathing

Breathing (or respiration, or ventilation) is the process of moving air into and out of the lungs to facilitate gas exchange with the internal environment, mostly by bringing in oxygen and flushing out carbon dioxide.
