[The hemodynamics of the lung circulation of minipigs after experimentally-caused Sedlarik's pulmonary embolism. I. Sedlarik's pulmonary embolism model in comparison to existing embolism models].

Abstract

The necessity of a clinical relevant pulmonary embolism model is described because of the international importance and the consequence for certain special branches. The multifarious pathophysiologic mechanism in the human requires an approximation of the model. The pulmonary embolism model according to Sedlarik approaches these demands and it became the basis of this study.
