Pulmonary CirculationPulmonary Circulation

Takes returning Takes returning bloodblood to to lungs to exchange carbon lungs to exchange carbon dioxide for oxygendioxide for oxygen

Pathway of venous Pathway of venous drainage from drainage from abdominal organs abdominal organs through liver before through liver before returning to inferior returning to inferior vena cavavena cava

Myocardial infarctionMyocardial infarction ( (MIMI)) Commonly known Commonly known

as a as a heart attackheart attack

interruption of blood interruption of blood supply to part of supply to part of heart, causing some heart, causing some heart cells to dieheart cells to die

Most commonly due Most commonly due to occlusion to occlusion (blockage) of a (blockage) of a coronary arterycoronary artery

16

CABG (CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Graft)

Surgery called revascularization to improve blood flow to heart in people with severe coronary artery disease (CAD)

Occurs coronary arteries become blocked due to buildup (plaque) on inside of blood vessels.

If severe, chest pain (angina), shortness of breath, possible heartattack and death

healthy artery or vein grafted, to blocked

artery bypassing blocked portion New passage routes oxygen-rich blood around the blockage to heart muscle

Up to 4 major blocked coronary arteries can be bypassed during 1 surgery.

Collateral veins will take over role previously performed by piece removed.
