Chapter 21, Problem 3CT
Summary Introduction
To describe:
The difference in the flow of the blood after inserting a catheter into the left atrium.
Introduction:
Most of the vertebrates have two types of circulation, including pulmonary and systemic circulation in blood vessels. Pulmonary circulation circulates the deoxygenated blood to the lungs to make it oxygenated, and then it passes the blood to the heart. Systemic circulation circulates the oxygenated blood from the heart to the other body tissues and then revert the deoxygenated blood back to the heart.

In a study of heart valve functions, it is necessary to inject a dye intothe right atrium of the heart by inserting a catheter into a blood vesseland moving the catheter into the right atrium. What route would yousuggest? If you wanted to do this procedure into the left atrium, whatwould you do differently?

- Choose one example of a cardiovascular imaging technique, describe how it works, and explain how it helps diagnose and treat cardiovascular diseases. (minimum 60 wordsarrow_forwardBlood is pushed out of the heart through a large vessel, called the aorta. The aorta then divides into smaller and smaller blood vessels, eventually reaching vessels called capillaries. Capillaries are so small that oxygen and nutrients can diffuse across the vessel walls and into the tissues of the body, with CO2 and waste diffusing back into the blood. Let's say that the cross-sectional area of the aorta is 1 cm2 = 100 mm2. The blood pumps through the aorta at 100 mm/s but only through the capillaries at 1 mm/s. If each capillary has a cross-sectional area of 20 mm2, how many capillaries must there be in the body? Note: these numbers are not physiologically correct, but were chosen to make the math easier. The blood velocity through the aorta is closer to 300 mm/s. The capillaries have a total cross-sectional area of ~600,000 mm2 (6000 cm2), with a blood flow rate closer to 0.2 mm/s.arrow_forwardChristine is going to perform venipuncture. She could clearly see the median cubital vein protruding in the arm of a 70-year-old male patient. However, when the needle is inserted and the plunger of the syringe is pulled, no blood entered the barrel of the syringe. This caused the blood to not enter the syringe. Give one possible reason why this happens. Why?arrow_forward

Another way to represent these events is with a pressure-volume loop, as shown below.
