Renal artery

the first paragraph, author illustrates about the heart shortly. The heart is a muscular organ in humans and other animals, which pumps blood through a 60,000 mile of blood vessels of the circulatory system. Blood moves through many tubes called arteries and veins which together are called blood vessels. It weighs between about 280 to 340 grams in men and 230 to 280 grams in women. Size of the heart is about your fist. Pumping of the heart relies on a complicate system of muscle which is called myocardium

Polite, Omari Dr. King 5 April 2016 Anatomy and Physiology Intracerebral Hemorrhage, a Scary Thing Intracerebral hemorrhage is a very scary and also deadly medical happening. Another name for it is a bleed in the brain or an aneurysm. I had this so this is a very serious topic to speak about. So let’s learn about what is a Intracerebral Hemorrhage, the symptoms, and facts about it. So what is an Intracerebral Hemorrhage? According to http://www.healthline.com/health/lobar-intracerebral-hemorrhage

The blood pressure of the heavy set individual would be at an increase because of the clogging of the arteries by the plaque. The plaque would cause the veins in the body to have less volume for the blood to flow, and if the same amount of blood is to be pumping through the heavy set individual, the pressure would increase. After the heart attack, with the heart not as strong as it was previously, the blood pressure would be lower if the heart were able to pump blood at all. The heart would not be

Heart disease is a major epidemic that is destructive and incurable. Every 1 in 4 deaths in America alone are caused by a diseased heart. People who are at risk are smokers, type 2 diabetics, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity or overweight, unhealthy diet, lack of physical activity, and genetics. Some examples of heart diseases are marfan syndrome (which affects the body’s connective tissues.), cardiomegaly (which is an enlarged heart due to some other type of heart condition.) and lastly

Opening: Ocular Hypertension is a term consults cases in which the pressure inside one’s eyes increases to a higher level than normal. This pressure is named after “intraocular pressure”. There is one way to measure eye pressure by using millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). The normal range of eye pressure is from 10-21 mm Hg. Ocular hypertension happens when the pressure is higher than 21 mm Hg. To broaden more knowledge about this condition, please follow the information below. Body: What cause of

Pulmonary Contusion A pulmonary contusion is a deep bruise to the tissues of the lung. The lungs bring oxygen into the bloodstream and remove carbon dioxide that the body cannot use. A pulmonary contusion causes the lung tissue to swell and bleed into the surrounding area. This interferes with the ability of the lungs to function. You may feel short of breath because you are not getting enough oxygen. CAUSES This condition is usually caused by a chest injury, such as an injury from: • A car

Energy drinks are beverages that contain stimulant drugs, predominantly caffeine. They are advertised to improve energy output, stamina, and concentration, and to cleanse the human body, sustain mental processes, increase reaction speed, and reduce muscle fatigue; however, these claims have not been proven scientifically. These energy drinks are consumed everyday in Australia, primarily by adolescents from the ages of 12-17 (Dunham, 2014). The consumption of energy drinks by individuals under the

Blood pressure is measured by systolic and diastolic rates. The larger systolic number is when the heart is contracting. The smaller diastolic number is when the heart is not contracting and at rest. These pressures are measured in mmHg. Normal blood pressure the systolic pressure is below 120 and the diastolic pressure is less than 80. Pre-hypertension blood pressure the systolic pressure is 120 to 139 and the diastolic pressure is 80 to 90. Hypertension is high blood pressure when systolic pressure

Dr. Volk had several different heart issues that resulted in his eventual heart transplant. One of the issues was called dilated cardiomyopathy, or the enlargement of chambers of the heart that typically starts with the enlargement of the left ventricle (American Heart Association, 2016). When a heart is enlarged too much the cardiac muscles can’t work as efficiently resulting in weaker contractions. Since his left ventricle was enlarged he was unable to pump a sufficient amount of blood to his body

The systemic circulation consists of the arterial and the venous systems. Arteries are a high pressure system and a pulse can be palpated. The muscle layer in arteries is stronger and they will not collapse like veins. Arteries are also deeper than veins and are surrounded by nerve endings, making arterial puncture painful. The venous system consists of superficial and deep veins. The superficial or cutaneous veins are those used for venipuncture. Because thrombosis of the superficial veins of
