Abstract
Massive pulmonary embolism is accompanied by the differences between a decrease in systemic and peripheral blood flow and imbalanced blood ejection from the ventricles. The results of the study suggest an association of these hemodynamic responses with redistribution of blood outflows from systemic veins whereby the relative proportion of blood outflowing to the right atrium decreases and that of blood outflowing to the left atrium increases via systemic-pulmonary collaterals.
