Abstract

Massive pulmonary embolism is accompanied by a sharp increase in the contractile activity of the right ventricle. Cardiodynamics during the first 30 min was characterized as subcompensated with impaired relaxation and then progressed to a compensated state (the next 6 h). The initial stage after a sharp increase in right ventricular afterload under massive pulmonary embolism is a critical period in relation to the development of heart failure.
