heart also consists of blood vessels known as aorta, vena cava, pulmonary trunk and pulmonary veins. (Taylor, 2017) Blood is a liquid connective tissue, that transports substances through the body. It also helps main homeostasis of nutrient, gases and waste. Blood consists of plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. A human body contains average of four to five litres of blood. (Taylor, 2017) Blood vessels can be referred as the body’s highway as they allow blood to flow through them
Circulatory System Coronary Circulation Coronary circulation is the circulation of blood in the blood vessels of the myocardium (heart muscle). Coronary arteries deliver oxygen-rich blood to the myocardium. Cardiac veins remove the deoxygenated blood from the myocardium. As the left and right coronary arteries run on the surface of the heart, they can be called Epicardial coronary arteries. These arteries, when healthy, are capable of auto regulation to maintain coronary blood flow at levels appropriate
HYPERTENSION 1. Definition of Hypertension: Hypertension (better known as high blood pressure) is a condition in which the blood is being forced through the walls of the arteries (a type of blood vessel) in a heavy manner for a prolonged period of time. A majority of people who have hypertension aren’t aware of it. Therefore, blood pressure should be measured frequently. Blood pressure is measured by the amount of force that the blood is pushing through the arteries. It is read by looking at two numbers,
cardiovascular system or the vascular system is an organ system that allows blood to circulate and transport nutrients, oxygen, and many other blood cells throughout the body, providing us with the proper daily necessities to survive.1 Another name for coronary heart disease is also coronary artery disease. The heart and the circulatory system make up our cardiovascular system. From this the heart works as a pump to transport and push blood to our organs, tissues, and other cells of the body. With the heart
you get started on the road to recovery. Your heart muscle mass requires oxygen to make it through. A cardiac arrest occurs when the blood circulation that brings oxygen to the heart muscle mass is significantly reduced or removed entirely (View an animation of blood circulation). Due to the fact that coronary arteries that supply the heart muscular tissue with blood flow could gradually end up being narrow from a build-up of fat, cholesterol as well as other elements that with each other are called
you need to boost blood flow to and into the penis. A hard erection relies on extra blood in the penis and here, we will look at the natural way to increase blood flow into the penis. There are many foods which increase blood flow around the body and banana's oily fish (salmon mackerel salmon and sardines) and onions, so try and get one of these foods everyday and if you are cooking, use ginger, garlic and chillies, there all tasty and all great for better blood circulation. You should also take
pulmonary circulation loop and the systemic circulation loop. The pulmonary circulation transport deoxygenated blood from the right side of the heart to the lungs. During pulmonary circulation blood picks up oxygen and returns to the left side of the heart. The right atrium and the right ventricle support the pulmonary circulation loop. The systemic circulation carries highly oxygenated blood from the left side of the heart to all of the tissues of the body. During systemic circulation it then removes
am going to write about the circulatory system of human. There are two types of circulation in circulatory system. First of all, pulmonary circulation is the part of the circulation, which carries oxygen depleted blood away from the heart, to lungs, and back to the heart. At first, in process of this circulation oxygen-depleted blood enters right atrium, and the blood pumped into the right ventricle. Then, the blood pumped to the pulmonary valve and goes into the pulmonary artery, and pulmonary
Abstract Aim: To compare Allen’s Test with modified Allen’s Test and its clinical importance Materials and Methods: Thirty students from Saveetha Dental College, Chennai were selected for this experiment, people were chosen at random. The Allen’s test is a worldwide standardized test used to determine whether the patency of the radial or ulnar artery is normal. It is performed prior to radial cannulation or catheterization, as a placement of such a catheter may result in thrombosis. Allen's
one muscular ventricle and two thin-walled atria. Blood that leaved the ventricle enters a large blood vessel that branches into two atria’s. These then divide into many smaller arteries, which then are divided into capillaries. Veins are used to return blood from the capillaries to the heart. The right and left pulmonary veins carry blood from the lungs to the left atrium. As the frog breaths using air with its lungs the blood is oxygenated. Blood from all the other parts of the body is brought back
