What else can I help you with?
If a cardiologist inserts a catheter into a patient's right femoral artery which arteries would the tubevhave to pass though in order to reach the entrance to theb left coronary artery?
the pulmonary artery
Do arteries lead from the heart or to the heart?
For the most part, yes. A vein carries blood to the heart and an artery carries blood away from the heart. Therefore, the vessel from the heart to the lungs is an artery, even though it is unoxygenated, and the vessel from the lungs to the heart is a vein, even though it is oxygenated.
Why does the Pulmonary artery have blood filled with Carbon dioxide in it?
I put this question up here before I registered.The simplest answer I can find is Celluar respiration puts out carbon dioxide which is carried through the blood in the Pulmonary artery to the lungs.Am I right though?
What major artery supplies the heart itself blood?
The coronary arteries. These leave the aorta and branch out over the heart. Blood only flows though these vessels during diastole because during systole they are blocked off by the aortic valve. The two main vessels that arise from the Sinus of Valsalva, located just above the aortic valves, are the right and left cornary arteries. The right coronary artery mainly supply the right ventricle and the sinoatrial node. The left main artery is divided into the left anterior descending artery and the left circumflex artery. The left anterior descending artery mainly supplies the anterior and septal portion of the heart, namely the left ventricle. The left circumflex artery supplies the lateral walls of the left ventricle. Finally, the posterior descending artery can arise from either the right or left coronary artery. If the posterior descending artery arises from the right coronary artery, the heart is termed right heart dominant, which is seen in approximately 70% of individuals. If the posterior descending artery arises from the left circumflex artery, it is termed left heart dominance. It is also possible for the posterior descending artery to arise from both the right and left coronary artery. In this configuration, the heart is considered co-dominant. The posterior descending artery mainly supplies the inferior wall of the left ventricle and the inferior portion of the septal wall.
Why are pulmonary arteries called arteries?
It is called a artery because arteries are vessels that stem from the heart and deliver blood to the organs. The pulmonary artery is still an artery, even though it carries deoxygenated blood, because it is coming from the heart to the lungs.Veins collect blood from organs and transport it back to the heart. Veins do not have a pulsating pressure, while arteries do, because arteries are still feeling the rhythmic push from the heart.Arteries carry blood away from the heart. They usually contain oxygen rich blood, except for the pulmonary artery, which carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs.Veins carry blood to the heart. They usually contain deoxygenated blood, but the pulmonary veins carry oxygenated blood (because they're coming from the lungs).
What are the two very large veins?
The first largest in the inferior vena cava. I don't know the other. The largest artery is the aorta though.
What is a pulmonary outflow tract?
It is your "PULMONARY ARTERY" and your "PULMONARY VEIN." There purpose is to carry De-Oxygenated blood to the lungs and oxygenated blood back to the heart. Your "Pulmonary Artery" carried De-Oxygenated Blood from the heart to the lungs (Your "Pulmonary Artery" is the ONLY ARTERY that carries De-Oxygenated Blood, all the other arteries carry Oxygenated Blood to the body.) Your "Pulmonary Vein" carries the oxygenated blood from the lungs back to the heart. (Your Pulmonary Vein is the ONLY VEIN that carries Oxygenated blood back to the heart, all other veins carry De-Oxygenated Blood to the Heart.) HOW IT WORKS: 1) De-Oxygenated Blood enters the heart from the rest of your body though the Superior or Inferior Vena Cava into the Right Atria of the heart. 2) The De-Oxygenated Blood in the right atria is Pumped though a valve called the "Tricuspid Valve" into the Right Ventricle. 3) The De-Oxygenated Blood in the Right Ventricle is Pumped though another valve called the "Pulmonary valve" into the Pulmonary Artery where is is brought to the Lungs. 4) The Blood is Oxygenated in the Lungs and put into the Pulmonary Vein to be brought back to the heart. 5) The Oxygenated Blood enters the Heart through the Left Atria. 6) The Oxygenated Blood in the Left Atria passes thought a valve called the "Mitral Valve" into the Left Ventricle. 7) The Oxygenated Blood in the Left Ventricle is pumped though a valve called the Aortic Valve into the Aorta. 8) The Oxygenated Blood in the Aorta is Pumped out though your arteries to the rest of the body. Your heart is a Big Muscular Pump. Your Pulmonary tract is the reason your blood has oxygen it it. (The Hemoglobin in your blood carries the oxygen.)
Can a baby crawl though a whale artery?
Yes, a whale artery is about half a metre in height.
What is the name of blood vessel that takes blood to the left atrium?
The pulmonary vein. Veins go to the heart, arteries come out. Even though the blood is oxygenated, it still travels through a vein to get to the heart. I'll leave it to you to figure out the pulmonary artery.
Which planet in the solar system has the largest satellite?
Jupiter. It has the largest moon in the solar system called Ganymede. The earth has the largest moon relative to its size though.
If a cardiologist inserts a catheter into a patient's right femoral artery which arteries would the tubevhave to pass though in order to reach the entrance to theb left coronary artery?
the pulmonary artery
What artery carries deoxygenated blood from the heart?
Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart. Arteries probably CAN carry deoxygenated blood if a person draws blood from a vein, then injects it into an artery. That would be very stupid though.
Tiny blood vessels joining artery with vein?
the smallest blood vessel is the capillary, then the vein, and the artery. (vein and artery depends though because when they diffuse they get smaller and close to the same size) but the smallest will always be the capillary.
Blood flows to the pulmonary artery though what valve?
The pulmonary valve (the right semilunar valve)
What is the largest Muslim sect though a minority in Iraq?
Sunnis are the largest sect even though they are a minority to the Shiites in Iraq
Can Post cerebral artery be involved in Moyamoya?
From what I just read about Moya-Moya disease surgery, it sounds as though the middle cerebral artery is often bypassed with the temporal artery to give better blood flow. This procedure is well known at Stanford University in California.
Does blood enters the excretory system through the vein?
No,Blood enters the excretory system though a artery.-Julie.
