ischemic Heart Disease
Ischemic Heart Disease (IHD)
The heart, like any other organ, needs oxygenated blood. Cardiac vessels serve this purpose.
Ischemia occurs when there is not enough oxygenated blood reaching the cardiac muscle cells.
The heart or cardiac muscle sends oxygenated blood to keeps cells alive.
Ischemia is a medical term meaning insufficient oxygen ... usually caused by insufficient blood flow. If the ischemia is occurring in the heart it will probably cause some type of cardiac problem: anything from mild cardiac failure (not pumping all the blood that the body demands) to pain (angina) to death of some or all of the cardiac muscle (a heart attack).
if there is any block in aorta( vein carrying oxygenated blood) and this leads to cardiac arrest which is in turn heart attack
Cardiac index (CI) is better. Because you count with the body surface. When you have a cardiac output (CO) of certain value in a small and thin person, the same value can be insufficient in a tall and fat person. In CI you devide CO by the person's surface and you get much better idea of what's going on ;)
Well the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart but the cardiac muscle itself receives oxygenated blood from the coronary arteries.
The left and right coronary arteries carry oxygenated blood from the base of the aorta to the heart muscle.
A congenital defect in the heart septum, resulting in inadequate circulation of oxygenated blood (a cause of blue baby syndrome).
Re-oxygenated blood flows into the heart via the pulmonary vein. However, these blood will leave the heart, and supply oxygen to the body. The heart has its own circulation; the cardiac arteries (supply the oxygenated blood)and the cardiac veins (drain the collected venous blood).
It is located between the right and left pumps of the heart. One of its main functions is to separate the oxygenated blood of the left pump from the oxygen poor blood of the right pump.
There are many causes of Yawns. Here are some: Fatigue and sleepiness Stress Boredom Insufficient oxygen in the blood Migraine Headache Stroke Epilepsy Coma Cardiac conditions
