The blood travels through the digital veins, the superficial palmar veins which drain into the cephalic vein, the median cubital vein, the basilic vein, the axillary vein, the subclavian vein, the brachiocephalic vein, and the superior vena cava to go to the right atrium.

Why is arterial bleeding viewed as so much more serious than venous or capillary bleeding?

Arterial bleeding is considered more serious than venous or capillary bleeding because arteries carry oxygen-rich blood at high pressure from the heart to the rest of the body. This type of bleeding can lead to rapid blood loss and can be life-threatening if not controlled quickly. Venous and capillary bleeding, on the other hand, typically involve blood flowing out at a slower rate and are easier to manage.


Which one does not fit arm, hand, heart, foot, leg?

What does the pulmonary aryery do?

The pulmonary artery is unique. Normally, arteries carry arterial blood, i.e. fully oxygenated blood (rich with oxygen). The pulmonary artery, on the other hand, carries venous blood, which is deoxygenated (depleted of oxygen). It takes that deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs, where the exchange of gases occurs: carbon dioxide is expelled from the blood into the alveoli (functional and anatomical units of lung tissue), and oxygen is absorbed from the alveoli into the blood. After that exchange, the oxygen rich blood (oxygenated) returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins, and then the heart pumps it out through the aorta, sending the oxygen to the whole body.

How does blood circulate around the lower arm and hand?

Blood pumps down and through the vessels in your hands by the pressure your heart pumps the blood from your heart. When you blood pressure is low then the blood isn't pumping with enough pressure.

What is the systemic circulation from pulmonary circulation?

Systemic circulation is the part of the cardiovascular system that carries oxygen-rich blood from the heart to the body and returns oxygen-depleted blood back to the heart. Pulmonary circulation, on the other hand, is the circulation of blood between the heart and lungs, where blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. Systemic circulation follows pulmonary circulation in the blood flow cycle.


What does gliding mean in a massage therapy?

Gliding generally refers to a technique that is called effleurage which, from the French, means stroking or gliding. These are generally performed with whole hand or hands and slightly more pressure is used when the movements are made towards the heart to enhance venous blood flow back to the heart. Hippocrates called it anatripsis, which means rubbing upwards, again, same as gliding.


What do the arteries supply and to what?

They supply blood to the body. Arteries supply oxygenated blood throughout the body. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to bodily tissues. Veins, on the other hand, carry oxygen deprived blood back to the heart.


Can you trace blood from the heart to the right hand through all of the arteries?

Blood from the heart is pumped through the aorta, then into the subclavian artery which branches into the brachial artery. From the brachial artery, blood flows into the radial and ulnar arteries in the forearm, finally reaching the hand through smaller arteries and arterioles.


Why is the left side of a heart bigger than the other side?

Its not. The heart is located in the center of the thorax directly behind the sternum. the reason it is often though to be on the left hand side is that the left ventricle is considerably bigger than the right and so sits a little further to the left than the right does to the right.
