After reading Chapter 14, “The Cardiovascular System,” from Fundamentals of anatomy and physiology, analyze the following case and answer the questions below.
While walking in the park with her two-month-old baby in a stroller, Laura, a first-time mother, runs into one of her neighbors, Rina, who is a registered nurse. Rina is excited to see Laura and meet the baby.
As the two women talk, Rina asks how everything is at home with the new baby. Laura sighs and says that she is worried because in the last few days the baby gets tired easily when she tries to breastfeed her. She also mentions that two (2) days ago, she saw a blue coloration on her baby’s lips and tongue but panicked and took no action.
Rina raises her eyebrows and urgently tells Laura that she needs to take the baby to the doctor immediately. Laura seems extremely nervous and begins to cry, to which Rina responds: “I am sorry, I did not mean to scare you. I know she is your first baby, but I honestly believe that you…

- two 50-year-old men are trying to determine their risk for developing arteriosclerosis. John jogs three times a week, maintains a healthy weight and eats a diet low in saturated fats. Thomas rarely exercises, is overweight, and only occasionally eats healthy meals. Based on your knowledge of the cardiovascular system and atherosclerosis, which man do you think is more at risk for developing the disease? What other factors could put a person at risk for arteriosclerosis?arrow_forwardRight common carotid artery is _ Left common carotid artery is _ Common iliac artery is _ Superior messenteric artery is _ Inferior messenteric artery is _ Gonada artery is _ The thoracic aorta is _ The celiac (artery) trunk is _ The abdominal aorta is _ The splenic artery is _ Renal artery is _ Common hepatic artery is _ Right coronary artery is _ Left coronary artery is _ The Brachiocephalic trunk is _ The ascending aorta is _ Right subclavian artery is _ Left subclavian artery is _arrow_forwardBlood is pushed out of the heart through a large vessel, called the aorta. The aorta then divides into smaller and smaller blood vessels, eventually reaching vessels called capillaries. Capillaries are so small that oxygen and nutrients can diffuse across the vessel walls and into the tissues of the body, with CO2 and waste diffusing back into the blood. Let's say that the cross-sectional area of the aorta is 1 cm2 = 100 mm2. The blood pumps through the aorta at 100 mm/s but only through the capillaries at 1 mm/s. If each capillary has a cross-sectional area of 20 mm2, how many capillaries must there be in the body? Note: these numbers are not physiologically correct, but were chosen to make the math easier. The blood velocity through the aorta is closer to 300 mm/s. The capillaries have a total cross-sectional area of ~600,000 mm2 (6000 cm2), with a blood flow rate closer to 0.2 mm/s.arrow_forward

- Why are subcostal views extremely important in the assessment of congenital heart disease?arrow_forwardRead the following scenario: Mr. Robert McClelland, an 81-year-old man, is a new admission from the local hospital to your long-term care facility. After Mr. McClelland’s last bout with pneumonia and congestive heart failure, his wife of 59 years has decided she is no longer able to care for him alone. Mrs. McClelland states, “He has just gotten too weak and can’t help me care for him. I am so afraid he will fall and hurt himself. I am so worn out trying to care for him myself. I have to bathe him and remind him to eat; sometimes, I’ve had to feed him myself, or he won’t eat. He can be so forgetful.” Given this information, there are two options that Mrs. McClelland is considering. Hire an in-home nurse to care for her husband. Place her husband in a nursing home. Write 200–250 words arguing for the option you think will be best. Use the discussion prompts to guide the content for your initial post. Then, respond to at least two of your peers’ posts.arrow_forwardMrs. Vanessa Narciso, a 30 year old G1P0, is in active labor and Nurse Marina notes that the she is having contractions every 3 minutes that last 45 seconds. Nurse Marina notes that the fetal heart rate between contractions is 100 beats per minute. Labor monitoring was done. The nurse caring for the client in labor monitors the fetal heart rate patterns. The nurse notes the presence of episodic accelerations on the electronic fetal monitor tracing. Which of the following actions is most appropriate to be done by the nurse? Reposition the mother and check the monitor for changes in the fetal tracing Notify the physician of the findings Document the findings and tell the mother that the monitor indicates fetal well being Take the mother's vital signs and instruct the mother that bed rest is required to conserve oxygenarrow_forward
