👉 Embolic refers to a condition where blood clots, or emboli, are formed within a vessel and travel through it. Emboli can lead to significant damage if they block blood flow in an artery or other blood vessels. This can be caused by mechanical trauma, bleeding, or other factors. The term "embolisms" is often used interchangeably with the medical term "hematoma," which refers to a collection of blood clots that form within a vein.
