A floating intravascular clot is called an embolus. This clot can travel through the bloodstream and may obstruct blood flow in various parts of the body, potentially leading to serious medical conditions such as stroke or pulmonary embolism. Emboli can originate from thrombosis, where a clot forms in a blood vessel and dislodges.
