What is the Function of the subclavian artery and vein?
The right subclavian artery extends from the brachiocephalic artery to the right side of the body. It supplies oxygenated blood to the arms.
Where does the subclavian artery take blood to and from?
As indicated by the name, subclavian, these arteries are located beneath the clavicles. On the right, the subclavian artery arises from the brachiocephalic artery and extends to the axillary artery. The left subclavian artery arises from the aorta distal to the left carotid and extends to the axillary artery.The subclavian arteries (left and right) are branches of the aorta supplying both the left and right arms respectively.The left subclavian artery stems directly from the AortaThe right subclavian artery is a branch of the brachiocephalic artery when itbifurcates into the common carotid artery and the right subclavian artery.The subclavian veins are continuations of the axillary veins. They are joined by the internal jugular veins to form both the right and left brachiocephalic veins then drain into the superior vena cava. The nerve to subclavius or subclavian nerve is a branch of the brachial plexus which arises from the junction of the fifth and sixth cervical ventral rami.
Two arteries are formed by the division of the brachipcephalic artery?
The brachiocephalic artery divides into the right common carotid artery and the right subclavian artery.
What artery branches off left brachiocephalic artery?

Where does the right subclavian artery carry blood?
The right subclavian artery carries blood to the right arm. It also carries blood to the head and the thorax.

What does the left and right common carotid arteries branch into?

What is the vessel called that branches to form a right common carotid and right subclavian?
The brachiocephalic artery is the first major branch off of the aortic arch, it gives rise to the right internal carotid artery and the right subclavian artery. The brachiocephalic artery is also sometimes called the brachiocephalic trunk, and may also be called the innominate artery.
What is sublarian?

Is a total blocked right innominate artery life threatening?
I have had a totally blocked innominate artery fo over five years. My blood suply to the right side comes from the left corotid artery...through the 'circle of willis' and reverse flows down the right corotid and subclavian. How this affects me is not noticable and not really known.
