Cardiovascular System - Heart Attack From Case Studies for Understanding the Human Body S. Braude, D. Goran, and S. Maxfield Uncle Jake and Aunt Leah were playing golf last week. On the sixth hole, Jake told Leah that he was having unusual pain in his left arm and chest. All of a sudden he felt weak and complained that his shirt was much too tight. A dentist playing one hole behind them examined Jake and found he was short of breath, pale, and sweating. He called 911 on his cell phone and

Causes of Dry Eye Condition Hormonal changes are the main cause of dry eye syndrome , causing changes in the production of tears. The hormonal changes associated with menopause are one of the main reasons why women are most affected by dry eye condition. Conditions that affect the lacrimal gland or its ducts, including autoimmune diseases such as lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, lead to a decrease in tear secretion and develop dry eye condition. Tear secretion may also be reduced because of certain

valves positioned inside the cardiac simulators. Both the cardiac simulators are similarly configured. Pulsatile air pressure inside the air chamber is controlled by a pneumatic control box the Utah Heart Controller, Symbion, Inc., (Salt lake city, UT) USA. The control box is used to control the heart rate, systolic duration and the driving pressure. It uses a combination of both pressurized and vacuum air to simulate the compressions and expansion of the diaphragm simulating the systole and diastole

Cardiology The human heart has a special characteristic, it has its own electrical impulse, which allows it to beat normally outside of the human body as long as it has sufficient oxygen levels. The term cardiology refers to the medical branch which focuses on disease and irregularities of the heart. A cardiologist focuses on the individual area of the body that is the heart and these doctors focus on preventing and treating illnesses of the whole heart or single vessels or arteries. Technology

diabetic patients using stem cell precision medicine. My several research on the regenerative cardiovasculatures using hUVECs on biosynthetic fibrinogen and the Penn State artificial heart using hCSCs on biomedical segmented polyurethanes has been successful in providing alternative potentials for patients with severe heart diseases. Biological organic synthesis methods for biomedical well-defined

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, short for ECMO, is an extracorporeal system of giving both cardiovascular and respiratory support to people whose heart and lungs can't give a sufficient measure of gas exchange to maintain life. This may be from the result of recent cardiac surgery. Generally, this has been utilized on kids, yet the use in adults with heart and respiratory disorders has increased over the years. Extracorporeal is defined as occurring outside of the body. Normally after a patient experiences

you won't really be able to have kids, i mean you would, be able to have kids but, you wouldn't really have time for them, maybe being a surgeon isn't the best idea if you want kind want to see them grow up. It takes a lot to be a surgeon overall. Heart valve replaced without

In the article “Queensland scientists sign deal to create 3D printed artificial mini skidneys”. (n.d), Professor Melissa Little explains how Scientist at the University of Queensland have an agreement with a US company to 3D print artificial kidneys. They are using human cells mixed polymer as the ink to build 3 dimensional shapes. These artificial kidneys are used for testing drugs for toxicity. By testing drugs using 3d printed tissue, it will save money and time. Elizabeth (2014) stated that

developing that the heart is the first organ that forms and in that heart contains four different regions. Where's the two ventricles in the to Atria's the right sides on the left side and those contain different cells that helps our body perform the different functions and it means. Such as pumping blood and moving oxygen and getting rid of everything that we need to get rid of and doing what it needs to do to make it so that we can live. Now when there's a problem in the heart there are different

How salt and sugar affect heart rate and blood pressure Heart rate is a measuring system for heart. It is measured by how many times then heart beats. A normal heart rate is usually between 60-100 beats. Abnormal is if the heart rate is too high or very low. Also, if the heart beats at irregular times. Some factors that change a person's heart rate are, the body temperature. It affects the heart rate because the warmer the body gets the heart beats more quickly. This happens because the body is
