How many pulmonary veins empty into the right atrium?
none. there are 4 pulmonary veins and they all empty into the left atrium, except in cases of congenital heart disease with anomalous pulmonary venous return to the right atrium.
What happens when there is a reduction to the blood returning to the heart does it increase?
Venous return (VR) is the flow of blood back to the heart. Under steady-state conditions, venous return must equal cardiac output (CO) when averaged over time because the cardiovascular system is essentially a closed loop.if systemic venous return is suddenly decreased, right ventricular preload decreases leading to an decrease in stroke volume and pulmonary blood flow.Decreased pulmonary venous return to the left atrium leads to decreased filling (preload) of the left ventricle, which in turn decreases left ventricular stroke volume by the Frank-Starling mechanism.In this way, a decrease in venous return to the heart leads to an equivalent decrease in cardiac output to the systemic circulation.
What is the medical term meaning abnormal circulatory condition characterized by decreased return of venous blood from the legs to the trunk of the body?
venous insufficiency
Who discovered that venous valves help aid in the return of blood to the heart?
William Harvey
Where do venous valves channel blood?
They prevent back flow and help to return blood to the heart.
Why is it that the child will prefer to assume a squatting position in tetralogy of fallot?
decreased pulmonary venous return to reduce R to L shunt

What improves venous return to the heart during strenuous exercise?
Venous return (VR) is the flow of blood back to the heart. Under steady-state conditions, venous return must equal cardiac output (CO) when averaged over time because the cardiovascular system is essentially a closed loop. Otherwise, blood would accumulate in either the systemic or pulmonary circulations.
What is the function of venous valves?
Valves aid in venous return by preventing the back flow of blood.
Tip the bed head down for venous return?
No, lift legs for venous return. Make sure legs are above heart. You do this for shock or bleeding.
How does the venous return mechanism work?
pressure gradient , gravity , skeletal muscle pump, thoracic pump and cardiac suction would be the mechanisms for venous return.
What increases stroke volume?
increase venous return
What is a determinate of left ventricular preload?
Blood volume and pulmonary vein pressures, along with venous tone and rate or return are the major determinants of LV preload (or, clinically speaking, LV end-diastolic pressure, or LVEDP).
Why arterial blood is more alkaline than venous blood?
pulmonary arterial blood as it has moce CO2 than venous
Why the jugular venous pressure falls during inspiration?
because the endothoracic pressure is decreased and the venous return to the heart is increased.
Is venous blood deoxygenated?
No, it is oxygenated. Pulmonary veins are the only veins in the human body that carry oxygenated blood.
