Coronary blood flow is regulated by local metabolic factors. Adenosine, nitric oxide, and decreased oxygen all act as vasodilators which improve blood flow in coronary circulation.
no it flows to your heart
coronary circulation
Systemic circuit- blood flow in the body Coronary circuit- blood flow in the heart Pulmonary circuit - blood flow in the lungs
Coronary or cardio is blood flow. Pulmonary or respiratory is breathing.
during diastole
They used to mean a coronary thrombosis - a blockage in the blood flow to the heart. This was/is also known as a heart attack.But, with advances in medical science they may be referring to a coronary bypass.... surgery to alter the flow of blood so as to avoid damaged blood vessels.
Blood enters the coronary arteries just above the aortic semilunar valve. After systole (a ventricular contraction), the valve closes. The closing valve causes blood to back flow against the valve. At this time, the backward flow of blood enters into the coronary arteries.
diastolic
Nitroglycerinmorphine
the difference between aortic diastolic and right atrial diastolic pressure; a determinant of the blood flow to cardiac muscle.
The Coronary Arteries receive blood during Diastole. While the heart is contracting, they are squeezed shut and little blood flows through them.
