Blood comes into your heart through the veins all throughout the body, it enters the heart through the superior and inferior vena cava, leaves the heart though the pulmonary artery, enters the lungs, gets oxygen, enters the heart again through the pulmonary veins, and then leaves the heart and goes back throughout the body through the aorta.
So blood travels from the heart, to the lungs, back to the heart, than out the heart and all through the body.
What else can I help you with?
To what organ does blood go immediately after it leaves the right ventricle?
Lung
From the right side of the heart blood goes to this?
The blood that leaves the right side of the heart is passed into the pulmonary arteries. This blood is oxygenated in the lungs and passes through the pulmonary veins into the left side of the heart.
Rigt and left pulmonary artery function?
they transport deoxygenated blood from the heart to either the left or right lung where the blood is oxygenated
What direction does the blood flow through the pulmonary artery?
What is the main pulmonary artery? * Arteries are vessels that carry blood away from the heart. The main pulmonary artery extends from the right ventricle and branches into left and right pulmonary arteries. The left and right pulmonary arteries extend to the left lung and right lung. Function: * Carries de-oxygenated blood from the right ventricle to the lungs. http://biology.about.com/library/organs/heart/blpulmartery.htm :D im doin biology toooo!!!
Is the proper blood flow through the heart the right atrium right ventricle right lung left atrium left ventricle?
Actually both right and left lungs but everything else is correct.
What is a blood clot on the lung called Embolus or Embolism?
A blood clot on the lung is called an emboli. The term embolus means the process of forming emboli.
What is a pulmonary embolism?
A pulmonary embolism is a blood clot in the lung. Clots that form elsewhere in the body can become lodged in the blood vessels leading from the right ventricle to the lungs.
What happens when you have blood clots in ones lungs?
A blood clot in the heart could affect the lungs in a number of ways. It could potentially block the pulmonary artery and prevent blood from traveling from the heart to the lung. That would reduce the amount of nutrients reaching that lung and the lung could suffer damage. The blood clot could also travel into the lung (if it is small enough to move through the pulmonary artery) and block blood flow into and out of the lung. The person usually feels short of breath and may cough up blood if that happens. This is called a pulmonary embolism and can be fatal if untreated.
When did the poet Robert Frost die?
He died in 1963 from a blood clot in his lung.
How do you develop a blood clot in your lung?
A blood clot in the lung, also known as a pulmonary embolism, typically forms when a blood clot from another part of the body, such as the legs, breaks loose and travels to the lungs through the bloodstream. This can happen due to factors like prolonged immobility, surgery, certain medical conditions, or genetic predisposition. Once in the lungs, the blood clot can block blood flow, leading to serious complications.
What is the relationship between venous thrombosis and pulmonary emboli?
'venous thrombosis' is a blood clot in a vein. Sometimes these blood clots can break off from where there are and travel 'embolize' to the lung 'pulmonary'. When the blood clot travels to the lung, it will get stuck in an vessel in the lung and block flow in that branch of the blood vessel. In some medical studies, as many as 40% of people with blood clots in their legs or pelvis will have a PE, or pulmonary embolis. These are often small and go un-noticed. Unfortunately they can also be very serious and even lead to death.
What illness did Robert Frost have?
He died from a blood clot that eventually got to his lung which caused him to die.
Blood clot suddenly blocks a vessel in the lungs?
A blood clot blocking a vessel in the lungs is known as a pulmonary embolism. It can be life-threatening and presents symptoms such as sudden chest pain, difficulty breathing, and coughing up blood. Immediate medical attention is crucial to prevent serious complications or death.
What causes blood to clot?
All I know is that when I had my surgery I developed one im my Left lung ! are you sure you don't mean "blood clot"? because there is no such thing as a blood chit. a blood clot is when blood doesnt circulate in a certain place forming, well, a clot. this is more likely to happen with adults than kids because kids are generally more figety (blood circulates better when muscles are moved).
Help you under stand blood clot to the lung?
A pulmonary embolus (blood clot to the lung) is usually a small clot that forms somewhere else in the body (usually the legs) and travels through the blood stream until it blocks a major blood supply to the lungs. This prevents normal oxygen exchange and can result in death if not taken care of immediately. I've reference the Medline page if you need more information, especially regarding treatment.
Can you describe a pulmonary embolism and how it develops in a right leg?
Pulmonary embolisms usually start out as a DVT or deep vein thrombosis or a blood clot in one of the major veins. These can form for a number of reasons. If someone has blood that is more prone to clotting than others or if they don't move for an extended period of time which would allow the blood to pool in the vein. When the clot has formed it will stay in the limb that it had started in for a period of time, mine was stayed in my leg a week before moving. When it moves it follows the blood flow to the lung, then it gets stuck there again causing the pulmonary embolism or lung blood clot. The sequential order of a blood clot in the leg or DVT is pieces of thrombus break off and travels up the vein to the inferior vena caba to the right atrium, through the biscupid valve to the right ventrical, then through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery into the lung. Until it gets to a portion of artery that is so small the clot can't pass any further. At that point the clot forms an obstruction.
You want to know if someone could die if they had a blood clot in there lung And if medicine can help them?
no. because lungs help you breath.
