Overview
Pulmonary embolism must be distinguished from other life-threatening causes of chest pain including acute myocardial infarction, aortic dissection, and pericardial tamponade, as well as a large list of non-life-threatening causes of chest discomfort and shortness of breath.
Disorders Pulmonary Embolism must be Differentiated From
- Acute coronary syndrome
- Acute respiratory distress syndrome
- Anemia
- Angina pectoris
- Anxiety disorders
- Aortic stenosis
- Atrial fibrillation (diagnosis and management)
- Bacterial pneumonia
- Cardiogenic shock
- Cardiac tamponade
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
- Congestive heart failure and pulmonary edema
- Community acquired pneumonia
- Cor pulmonale
- Costochondritis
- Dilated cardiomyopathy
- Distributive shock
- Emphysema
- Fat embolism
- Hemorrhagic shock
- Herpes zoster
- Hyperventilation
- Mediastinitis
- Mitral stenosis
- Musculoskeletal pain
- Myocardial infarction
- Myocardial ischemia
- Myocarditis
- Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema
- Pericarditis
- Pleuritis
- Pneumothorax
- Pulmonary hypertension, primary
- Pulmonary hypertension, secondary
- Restrictive cardiomyopathy
- Rib fracture
- Salicylate intoxication
- Septic shock
- Silicone pulmonary embolism[1]
- Sudden cardiac death
- Superior vena cava syndrome
- Syncope
- Toxic shock syndrome
- Trauma to the chest
- Viral pneumonia
