Pulmonary embolism

2.1. The left ventricle and interventricular septum The heart has two inferior chambers, called the right and left ventricles, respectively. These chambers are the “pumps” that expel blood into the blood vessels and keeps it flowing through the body (Rizzo, 2016). The left ventricle is a cavity that has thick muscular walls that contains the papillary muscles as well as the chordae tendinae that attaches the atrio-ventricular valve leaflets to the papillary muscles (Leeson, Augustine,…

Article 69: Ayurvedic Management of Hridroga Introduction The cardiovascular system consists of the heart and blood-vessels (with their contained fluid, blood). The heart is a muscular organ and pumps blood to all parts of the human body by the process of contraction. Pure-.oxygenated blood is carried by the dhamani (arteries) and impure-deoxygenated blood by the sira (veins). Some common cardiac ailments and there Ayurvedic management is discussed below High blood pressure (Hypertension)…

ventricle is filled the tricuspid valve closes to prevent any back flow of the blood. The right ventricle contracts forcing the blood to enter into the pulmonary artery 2 through the pulmonary valve. The pulmonary artery extends into both of the lungs where the deoxygenated blood is replenished with oxygen and is send back to the heart through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium chamber 4 at this time the left and right atrium relax to intake oxygenated and deoxygenated blood respectively.…

11.2 The Circulatory System The circulatory system is made up of multiple different organs, and it's main function is transportation. The system allows blood to circulate, which transports oxygen, hormones and nutrients as well as picking up waste. The elements of the system include; The Heart The heart acts as a muscular pump which is divided into 4 different chambers, the heart's main function is to pump the blood around the body. It pumps deoxygenated blood through the veins, to the…

Furthermore, the success of occlusion of PDA with no obstruction of Aorta and/or left pulmonary artery in small infants weighing as less as 1700 grams was demonstrated in both animals and humane studies.…

Easy pediatric nasal intubation Abstract: Background: Pediatric anesthesiologists use Magill forceps commonly during nasotracheal intubation but often have difficultly during advancing the nasotracheal tube into the trachea, differences in pediatric airway structure relative to adults are thought to be the reason of this problem. The modified pediatric Magill forceps (modified by Farrukh and his colleagues) added anteroposterior firm grasping of the nasotracheal tube enables us for…

composed of the heart and the blood vessels. The main function of the cardiovascular system is to pump blood around the body. The cardiovascular System is divided into two parts, the systematic circuit and the pulmonary circuit. The systematic circuit contains oxygenated blood and the pulmonary blood contains deoxygenated blood. In order to prevent oxygenated and deoxygenated blood from mixing there is a structure called an interventricular septum. The septum separates the cardiac chambers;…

Describe the structure and function of the cardiovascular system Blood vessels Arteries, veins and capillaries takes blood and nutrition to the muscles and back from the heart. Arteries take the blood that has O2 in it away from the heart under high pressure with a small diameter and it has thick muscular walls, and veins take the blood back to the heart under low pressure it has a medium thickness to it and a large diameter because it has valves to stop the blood flowing backwards.…

cardiovascular system. The heart has four main parts: the left ventricle,the right ventricle, the left atrium, and the right atrium. A wall of muscle called the septum separates them. Oxygen-rich blood from the lungs goes to the left atrium by the pulmonary vein. The left atrium then pumps this blood to the left ventricle. The right atrium collects deoxygenated blood from the body and then pumps this deoxygenated blood to the right ventricle. The left vertical…

The cardiovascular system is the bodies system that is in charge of regulating blood throughout the body. The main job of the cardiovascular systems are transportation of blood which allows the body to receive oxygen, nutrients, and hormones while disposing of wastes. The second job of the cardiovascular system is protection via the white blood cells. White blood cells clean up cellular debris and fight pathogens that have entered the body. The cardio vascular system will also offer protection…
