Other parts of the body which can be affected are the hands, chest, torso and the length or tallness. For those who play sports this disease can end their careers. Due to the pressure around the heart, lungs and blood vessels heavy activity is could lead to death. I chose this topic because I was tested for Marfan Syndrome due to large hands which are referred to as basket hands and for…

This in light of the aorta or vena cava contracting due to inefficient blood being pumped by the heart. The vena cava and aorta branch of into the arms and neck along these lines they are the reasons of misery. Exactly when the heart is not ready to pump blood at a rate obliged (systolic brokenness) fluids begin to create…

artery. In the lungs the blood gets oxygenated and returns to the left atrium through the pulmonary veins. It passes through the left AV into the left ventricle and when the left ventricle contracts blood is forced through the aortic SL, into the aorta and distributed to the body (“The Heart and Heart…

The heart uses the help of blood vessels and capillaries to deliver blood from left ventricle to the body with the help of aorta and atria diastole cardiac cycle. With the help of capillaries and blood vessel transport system the oxygenated blood is delivered to the cells present in a muscle such as cardiac muscle. At this point the oxygenated blood provides oxygen to the cells…

Heart is a muscular organ located in the thoracic cavity; it is responsible for pumping the blood to rest of the body through the circulatory system.1 It is composed of four chambers: left & right atrium and ventricle, these two chambers are separated by valves(atrioventricular), whereas the left and right side of heart is separated by interventricular septum.1 Walls of heart are composed of cardiac myocytes, these cells contain myofilaments, each unit is composed of contractile protein called…

Echocardiograms can also be used to produce an ultrasound image of the hearts structures (Hockenberry, 2014). Other methods of detection of aneurysms include chest x-ray and computerized tomography or CT scan to provide an internal image of the aorta and the heart (Mayo Clinic,…

compromised to the lower extremities, and is known as PVD/PAD. There are actually three types of Peripheral Vascular Disease. Type 1(10-15% of patients) involves the aorta and ileac arteries, type 2 (~ 25% of patients) involve the aorta and the common and external ileac arteries, and the most common type 3(~60-70% of patients) which involves the aorta, ileac, popliteal, and tibial arteries. This plaque usually forms at arterial bifurcations…

The digestive system consists of the oral cavity, oesophagus, stomach, liver, gall bladder, spleen, pancreas,intestines, appendix and the rectum. All these organs interlink in order to carry out an environment of homeostasis. Homeostasis is a state of equilibrium inside the body as stated in the Journal of Nursing Standards (Hendry C 2012 page (46-50)).A further consideration is that of legal and ethical concerns within practice. The first part of the digestive system is the oral cavity and…

Common carotid – it supplies blood to buccal cavity and brain. it consists swelling at the base called carotid labyrinth. b) Systemic arch – two systemic arches move upward and then curve backward to join each other behind the heart to form dorsal aorta before meeting each other each systemic arch gives- Oesophageal artery – it supplies…
