Pressure vessel

inferior gluteal arteries in order to form an extracapsular arterial ring at the base of the femoral neck (Glynn). Blood is supplied to the femoral head by retinacular vessels that originate at the arterial ring and travel subsynovially along the capsule of the hip joint. The femoral nutrient artery has additional intraosseous vessels that travel from the femoral nutrient artery to the femoral head. The artery of the ligamentum teres derived from the obturator artery and occasionally from the MFCA

first let's introduce you to heart disease and what it is and how it can affect you. Heart Disease refers to when people coronary disease and it one type of cardiovascular disease. It refers to a disease/disorder that affects the narrowing of blood vessels that are in close proximity or in the heart. Other forms of heart disease include a break in rhythm of the heart or weakened heart muscles so the heart cannot perform its function.

returns via the venous system to the heart. In the course of each heartbeat, systemic arterial blood force varies among a systolic and diastolic pressure. Blood flow ensures the transportation of nutrients, hormones, metabolic wastes, O2 and CO2 all over the body (Wade, 2013). These sustain cell-level metabolic rate, the regulation of the pH, osmotic pressure

meaning of systolic and diastolic pressure. The range of levels from optimal to poor in relation to blood pressure. I will take my blood pressure as well as my mother’s and discuss the correlations between blood pressure and lifestyle, stress level or activity level. Last, I will discuss how I will incorporate this knowledge in my future training endeavors. Blood pressure is defined as the force exerted by the blood against the inner walls of the blood vessels. Determined by the flow blood and resistance

connecting to the brain, or further away before being swept through the bloodstream and into narrower arteries within the brain. Clots can be caused by fatty deposits within the arteries called plaque. man with blood pressure monitoring device Hypertension can lead to blood vessel ruptures and hemorrhagic strokes.Hemorrhagic strokes4,6 Hemorrhagic strokes are caused by arteries in the brain either leaking

the term blood pressure and describe the role it plays in the circulatory system. Describe the conditions high and low blood pressure. Blood pressure is the force of blood in the circulatory system without pressure blood would not flow through the body. High blood pressure in the arteries after a while will become lower in the capillaries and the veins. Your heart beat can affect the blood pressure if the ventricle is contracting it is high if it is dilating it is low. Blood pressure is measured

the blood vessels cuts off blood supply to an area of the heart. The cause of this blockage is a process that occurs over several years known as 'atherosclerosis'. Atherosclerosis begins with cholesterol in the blood becoming lodged in the vessel walls. There are many other factors that influence the progress of this atherosclerosis. This causes the vessel wall to swell, resulting in a smaller vessel for blood to flow through. If this narrowing is severe enough, the entire blood vessel can become

Fish have a two-chambered heart with one atrium and one ventricle. Oxygen diffusion occurs in the gills. Amphibians have a three chambered heart with two atria and one ventricle. Reptiles have a four chambered heart with two atria and two ventricles. However, there is mixing of blood because the ventricle separation is incomplete. Birds and mammals both have a four chambered heart. All of these hearts contain valves and the rest of the body receives blood through arteries (which carry oxygenated

The Human Cardiovascular System The cardiovascular system consists of three parts which include the heart, blood vessels and blood. Its primary function is to pump blood around the entire body as we need blood in order to transport oxygen to cells and carbon dioxide to the lungs. Blood helps prevent disease or injury as well as regulating temperature and hydration levels. Why is the blood contents examined? Blood contains two main elements which are the fluid that is known as plasma and cells

Raynaud's Disease Few people are aware of Raynaud's disease even though it is a fairly common condition. Raynaulds Disease is also referred to as Raynauld’s phenonmenon. Raynaud's is a condition in which cold temperatures or stress cause blood vessel spasms that block blood flow to fingers, toes, nose, and ears. This causes these body parts to suddenly turn ice cold and to become a purple or blue color. Later when the blood flow becomes normal the area turns a reddish color and later returns
