What would happen if the pulmonary artery was to be cut and bleed?
The pulmonary artery is the one which carries blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. It is the only artery in the body that carries deoxygenated blood. The blood is carried at a pressure, usually less than 30mmHg. So, if the pulmonary artery was to be cut and bleed, the person would die when blood volume fell below the minimum necessary. This wouldn't take long, either. Between actual blood loss, and the sudden decrease in pressure such an injury would cause death in approximately 2 minutes

Is it ok for persons taking plavix to take pantoprazole?
Pantoprazole (Protonix) apparently does not interfere with the liver enzyme system involved in the absorption of Plavix. This difference means it should not interfere with the efficacy of Plavix. I am currently trying to decide whether to discontinue taking a different PPI (proton pump inhibitor) and switch to pantoprazole (Protonix). I have been taking a PPI for many years because of severe GERD, and, for the past two years, I have been on Plavix following an embolic event related to carotid artery disease. At this point, I am switching to pantoprazole, and, will stagger when I take the Plavix and the PPI (based on the absorption of Plavix).

The function of the coronary artery is to carry oxygen and nutrients to the myocardium (heart muscle), it does not actually take the carbon dioxide away, (that is the job of the great and small cardiac veins).
What is diagnosis of coronary artery disease?
The coronary arteries bring nutrients and oxygen to the heart. They actually are so important that they take blood to the muscles of the heart before the rest of the body. A person with a disease of these arteries has less oxygen going to the heart muscles and an increased risk of heart damage or a heart attack.

What is a stent in a OM branch of the circumflex coronary artery?
A stent is best described as a tiny metal scaffold that holds open coronary arteries to prevent atherosclerosis and therefore heart attacks (in that artery only). They actually look a little bit like the spring in pens if you take them apart. OM just means (obtuse marginal) branch of the circumflex. The circumflex is a larger artery that wraps around the heart. These are just descriptions of where exactly the stent is placed for future reference.
