Cardiac embolism refers to a condition where a blood clot, or embolus, travels from another part of the body and lodges in the heart's blood vessels, disrupting normal blood flow. This phenomenon poses a significant risk, as it can lead to serious complications, including strokes or heart attacks. The embolus typically originates in the arteries or chambers of the heart itself or may travel from other parts of the body, such as the legs, where deep vein thrombosis can occur. Prevention and management of cardiac embolism often involve anticoagulant medications to reduce the risk of blood clot formation. Understanding the underlying causes and risk factors, along with timely medical intervention, plays a crucial role in addressing and mitigating the impact of cardiac embolism on cardiovascular health.
