In general, pediatric epilepsy consists of transient cardiac events. Adult seizures, particularly those with underlying cardiovascular conditions, pose risk to the cardiovascular system, including cardiac ischemia. Respiratory changes are possible across the lifespan, from infants to older adults. Cardiac function seems to be dependent upon the type of seizure occurring. The majority of complex partial, tonic-clonic and temporal lobe seizures are associated with increased heart rate. This…

first we need to understand some of the differences in veins and arteries. The arteries in the systemic system, deliver oxygenated blood from the heart, in a high pressure low volume stream to the capillaries found throughout the body. The systemic veins carry the deoxygenated blood from the capillary beds in a low pressure, high volume, valve controlled flow, back to the heart. From there, the heart pumps the deoxygenated blood through pulmonary artery to be taken to the lungs to replenish the…

microcirculation is constricted by sickled erythrocytes. The blockage occurs as sickled cells, created due to mutated haemoglobin forming valine at position 6, polymerise and prevent oxygen in the blood from flowing through veins, arteries and capillaries to undergo respiration. The resultant is an episode of acute pain due to the destruction of bone and visceral organs and an increase of pressure in the area as cellular respiration cannot occur. Lack of oxygenation causes subsequent cell death,…

Review of “A Clinical Trial of Integra Template for Diabetic Foot Ulcer” Summary: Diabetic foot ulcer is happening due to complications involving the slow healing process as a result of the diabetes. The diabetic foot ulcer is cause by diabetes mellitus which increases risk for diabetic foot ulcer. (Driver et al 891) Diabetic foot ulcer can eventually lead to amputation if not treated or if it is too advanced. now there’s a way to treat foot ulcers using synthetic skin grafts. using a bilayer of…

As the blood travels, the arteries branch out so that there are more and more of them, but they get smaller and smaller. Eventually, the blood reaches the capillaries…After passing through the capillaries, the blood returns to the heart by traveling through veins. Veins, which are small and numerous near the capillaries, form larger and larger vessels. At the same time, there are fewer and fewer of these larger vessels, so only a few large veins return blood directly to the heart.” (Shannon…

Colloids and Crystalloids on fluid resuscitation during hypovolemic shock John Tristan Pahuyo, Staff Nurse ACCU-Barts Heart Centre Hypovolemia is generally defined as having a significant amount of blood volume loss. Shock, on the other hand, is a medical emergency characterized by inadequate blood flow to organs and tissues thus reducing oxygen delivery that leads to organ dysfunction. Hypovolemic shock is described as a loss of greater than 15% of the intravascular volume. It is caused by an…

protects itself from a certain disease invading the body. The lymphatic system removes excess fluids and waste products from the body’s tissue. The lymphatic system consists of lymph nodes, lymph vessels, lymph capillaries and lymph. Lymph is a fluid within the lymph vessels and capillaries that carry the disease fighting cells known as lymphocytes. There are certain changes that occur as you age and are very normal. Your lymph nodes start to decrease in size and quantity. The weakening of…

called leukocytosis which responds for the white blood cells to the injury. How does the white blood cell leave though? Margination and diapedesis. Starting with margination which is clinging to the capillary wall to the diapedesis which flattens the which blood cells and squeezes out of the capillaries. The movement towards the chemical signal is called chemotaxis. The neutrophil is also known as the white blood cells that respond to these sorts of situations. Chemical defense that we have are…

N.p., n.d. Web. 17 Sept. 2017. This .gov article defines capillary action or the movement of water through porous material due to cohesion, adhesion, and surface tension forces. Water molecules can soak paper towels because of their sticky tendency and gravitational resistance. “Cellulose.” Gale: Research in Context…
