A pulmonary embolism is a sudden blockage in a lung artery, usually due to a blood clot that traveled to the lung.
A pulmonary embolism occurs when a blood clot blocks an artery in the lung, cutting off blood flow. This can lead to lung tissue damage, decreased oxygen levels in the blood, and potentially fatal complications such as cardiac arrest. People can die from a pulmonary embolism due to the lack of oxygen reaching vital organs, causing organ failure.
