Graded response of the pulmonary circulation to progressive pulmonary embolism in sheep: From compensation to lethal right heart failure

Background: Severe pulmonary embolism (PE) with right heart failure (RHF) has high mortality. To more fully understand PE progression, we evaluated the right ventricle (RV) and pulmonary circulation response to graded PE in an acute PE sheep model. Methods: Polydextran beads were intravenously admin...
