cardiology study of the heart
cardiopulmonary resuscitation actions taken to revive a person by keeping the person's heart and lungs working
coronary arteries vessels that supply the myocardium
, coronary artery disease diseases that affect the arteries of the heart
deep vein thrombosis blood clot in a vein, usually a deep vein of the lower limbs
fluid output exceeds fluid intake causing a decrease in the amount of fluid in body
dehydration
tissues
diaphoresis cool, pale, and moist/sweaty skin; sweating
dysrhythmias irregular, or absent heart rhythm
edema swelling from a build up of fluid in the body tissues
hemorrhage loss of large amount of blood from the vessels, internal or external
inability of the body to adequately circulate blood to the body's cells to supply them
hypo-perfusion
with oxygen and nutrients (SHOCK)
hypotension abnormally low pressure of the blood

supply of oxygen and nutrients to and removal of wastes from the cells and tissues
perfusion
of the Body as a result of the flow of blood through the capillaries
valve structure that opens and closes to permit the flow of fluid in only one direction
condition where the heart's electrical impulses are disorganized, preventing from
ventricular fibrillation
contracting normally
what is the blood volume in an average male: 5 to 6 L
sized adult? female: 4 to 5 L
what are the three functions of blood? transportation, regulation, protection
1. oxygen from the lungs to the cells of the body
2. carbon dioxide from the body cells to the lungs
What does blood transport?
3. nutrients from the GI tract to body cells
4. hormones from endocrine glands to body cells
what does blood regulate? body temp, pH, fluid volume
which blood cells protects? white blood cells
