What structure supplies oxygenated blood to the heart muscle?
Coronary arteries. The orifice of the coronary arteries are located on proximal part of the ascending aorta, and there are two orifices branching into the left and right coronary arteries.The marginal, anterior and ventricular arteries provide the cardiac muscle with oxygenated blood.The coronary arteries are the major vessels bringing blood to the heart muscle. The are the left and right coronary arteries, the left having a common trunk followed by the circumflex and anterior descending branches. Each of these give off side branches which bring blood and hence oxygen to the heart muscle. Coronary arteries fill during diastole.There is a right coronary artery and the left coronary artery. In total there are four coronary arteries.
Is the heart proximal to the lung?
TRUE
Is the popliteal artery proximal or distal to the femoral artery?
It is distal to it....
What is the coronary artery in an adult?
There are two, the right and the left. They are the blood vessels that run directly out of the heart. One runs to the lungs to get oxygen and the other sends oxygenated blood into the body. ALSO: THEY ARE THE BLOOD VESSELS THAT SUPPLIES BLOOD TO THE HEART'S MUSCLES ---- The first answer above is incorrect. The coronary arteries are two in number, the right and the left. They arise from the proximal aorta, just after the aortic valve and supply blood directly to the cardiac muscle. The left has three main divisions: the left main coronary artery, which is the relatively short first segment. The left main then branches into the left anterior descending (LAD) and the left circumflex artery. The left artery supplies most of the septum and left side of the heart, including the left ventricle. The right coronary artery is a relatively smaller vessel and supplies the right side of the heart and the inferoposterior portion of the heart. It also supplies blood to the SA node and also to the AV node (in about 60% of patients).
The major arteries and veins from the left ventricle to the foot and back to the right atrium?
Proximal to distal (arterial) - aorta, common iliac, external iliac, common femoral, superficial femoral, popliteal, (trifurcation to) perneal, anterior and posterior tibial, deep plantar, dorsal digital. Distal to proximal (venous) - dorsal digital, great saphenous, external iliac, common iliac, inferior vena cava Proximal to distal (arterial) - aorta, common iliac, external iliac, common femoral, superficial femoral, popliteal, (trifurcation to) perneal, anterior and posterior tibial, deep plantar, dorsal digital. Distal to proximal (venous) - dorsal digital, great saphenous, external iliac, common iliac, inferior vena cava
From which major vessel do the coronary arteries arise?
Just outside the Left ventricle, in the aortic cusp.
What is widely patent proximal RCA?
On December 1999 to treat a 90 percent diameter stenosis lesion located in the proximal right coronary artery (RCA).ÊAt necropsy, there was a 60 percent cross-sectional area of luminal narrowing of the RCA proximal to the stent. The stented segment was widely patent and well healed.

What is the proximal direction of the body?
Proximal means closer to the origin of the limb, so the knee is proximal to the ankle, and the wrist is proximal to the thumb.
Which substances present in the glomerular filtrate but not normally in urine?
glucose and amino acids, because they are selectively reabsorbed in the proximal convoluted tubule.
Is the head distal or proximal to the shoulders?
Proximal
Is the ankle is proximal to the foot?
Proximal, anything closer to midsection in proximal (closer) than distal (distant).
Are peyer patches in the proximal or distal intestine?
proximal ?
Is the forearm proximal to the arm?
Yes, proximal=next to
Differentiate between proximal and distal parenting?
proximal parenting
Is the knee proximal or superior to the foot?
the knee is proximal to the foot
Is the hand is proximal to elbow?
No . The hand is proximal to the wrist . Proximal = proximity[ closeness] Distal = distant [ farther away ]
