If a blood vessel ruptures, it has developed a leak. In an artery (going away from the heart) the blood will leak much faster than in a vein (going back to the heart).
What else can I help you with?
What are two conditions that can cause a stroke?
blockage of vessel, or rupture of vessel.
If you rupture a blood vessel can you die?
Yes. It depends on the blood vessel and where it is, but yes a rupture to a blood vessel can kill you. A blood vessel is more likely to "pop" or rupture if it has an aneurysm, which is a local weakness where the blood vessel has stretched from the pressure of the blood. This is more likely to result in death if it is in a large blood vessel or in a critical location, such as the aorta or a vessel in the brain.
A what usually invalves a rupture or a blockage of a blood vessel in the brain?
A stroke can be caused by bleeding on the brain.
A rupture disc on a recovery vessel for low pressure refrigerants relieves at what psi?
A rupture disc on a recovery vessel for low pressure refrigerants typically relieves at a pressure range of around 15 to 25 psi, depending on the specific design and safety requirements of the vessel. This low pressure setting is essential to ensure safe operation and prevent overpressure conditions that could lead to vessel failure. Always refer to the manufacturer's specifications for the exact relief pressure for a particular vessel.
What is the medical term meaning rupture of a vessel?
Cardiorrhexis is rupture of the heart (cardio=HEART; rrhexis=RUPTURE). Myocardial rupture (or heart rupture) is a laceration or tearing of the walls of the ventricles or atria of the heart, of the interatrial or interventricular septum, of the papillary muscles or chordae tendineae or of one of the valves of the heart. It is most commonly seen as a serious sequela of an acute myocardial infarction (heart attack).Myocardial rupture (or heart rupture) is a laceration or tearing of the walls of the ventricles or atria of the heart, of the interatrial or interventricular septum, of the papillary muscles or chordae tendineae or of one of the valves of the heart.

Is it normal for blood vessels to rupture?
When a blood vessel bursts, the wall of the vessel has an abnormal opening. This opening allows blood to escape the circulation, and may cause a bruise or hematoma.

What is the sac formed by dilatation of a vessel wall in the cerebral artery called?
This is called aneurysm. It is not strong and can rupture causing a stroke.
Which term describes what happens when a blood vessel in th ebrain leaks or rupture?
cerebrovascular accident (CVA)
A stroke is a rupture of a blood vessel in the?
brain, leading to a sudden interruption of blood supply resulting in brain cell damage. This disruption can cause neurological deficits like paralysis or speech difficulties. Immediate medical attention is crucial to minimize long-term effects and prevent complications.
What is rupture diaphragm?
A rupture diaphragm is a thin barrier designed to burst at a specific pressure, usually installed in pressure vessels or equipment to protect them from overpressure. When the pressure inside the vessel exceeds the designed limit, the rupture diaphragm bursts, allowing the excess pressure to be released and preventing potential damage or explosion.
Rupture of a vessel in the cerebrum?
A rupture of a vessel in the cerebrum can lead to a hemorrhagic stroke, where bleeding occurs within the brain tissue. This can result in symptoms such as sudden severe headache, neurological deficits, and potentially life-threatening complications if not promptly treated. Treatment may involve stabilizing the patient, controlling bleeding, and addressing any underlying causes such as high blood pressure.
