What is the coronary aretery?
The coronary arteries supply the heart itself with necessary oxygen. When these arteries are blocked, it can cause a myocardial infarction (heart attack). I think that the artery takes it through blood
What organ system does Arteries belong?
Typically the words "organ" and "system" are used separately-- a system is a collection of organs that work toward a particular purpose. The coronary arteries are, like all arteries, part of the cardiovascular system. They can also be considered part of the heart, when looking at things from the standpoint of organs.
What is the CPT code for coronary artey bypass vein two coronary venous grafts?
The code you are looking for is 33511.
3 types of circulation in the body?
The three types of blood circulation in the body are the systemic, pulmonary and portal circulation. The systemic is also known as the greater circulation and the pulmonary is also known as the lesser circulation.
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.
Do arteries carry oxygenated blood back to the heart?
The heart is broken up into left and right halves. The left side (when looking at it from the front as if an observer) pumps unoxygenated blood through the capillaries of the lungs where it becomes oxygenated and then back around to the right side of the heart. This is called pulmonary circulation. The right side of the heart then pumps the oxygenated blood to all the various tissues of the body. Here the tissues take in the oxygen and the now deoxygenated blood is brought back to the left side of the heart to begin the cycle again. This portion of the cycle is called systemic sirculation. In both cases. The arteries are the high pressure blood vessels that carry the blood from the heart to its ultimate destination. The lungs in the pulmonary circulation and the different body tissues in the systemic circulation. The veins then carry the blood back to the heart. Therefore arteries cannot be classified as oxygenated or unoxygenated because the arteries of pulmonary circulation are unoxygenated while the arteries of the systemic circulation are oxygenated. Arteries instead are classified as high pressure blood vessels flowing AWAY from the heart while veins pump blood back towards the heart.
What organ systems are involved in circulation?
I was looking for the answer to this too.
Where did the name Marina originate from?
Greek, Italian, Russian, and French. Was this what you were looking for?
When you cut yourself, where does the blood come from?
Depends, how deep. On the skin surface you are looking at capillaries and small veins. Past the skin, you are looking at bigger veins and arteries.

Poor circulation
Where can you get the statistics of magazine circulation of India?
Brief circulation figures can be found at National Readership Survey site. However this is not exhaustive. I myself am looking for circulation figures for vernacular magazines (Bengali). Have not found them yet....... Sunando Majumdar.
