◉ superior vena cava. Answer: brings blood from heard and
shoulders to heart
◉ inferior vena cava. Answer: brings blood from abdomen and lower
portion of body to heart
◉ systolic pressure. Answer: (upper number) created each time
heart beats
◉ diastolic pressure. Answer: (lower number) created each time
heart relaxes between beats
◉ anemia. Answer: condition in which blood doesn't carry enough
oxygen to the rest of your body. Iron deficiency most common cause
◉ aneurysm. Answer: bulge or ballooning in wall of artery. Can burst
and cause dangerous bleeding or death. aneurysm in the brain is a
stroke. Medicine and surgery are two main treatments
,◉ angina pectoris. Answer: chest pain felt when there isn't enough
blood flow to heart muscle. May feel like pressure, squeezing pain, or
indigestion. Symptom of coronary artery disease (CAD), buildup of
plaque in arteries reducing blood flow
◉ arrhythmia. Answer: problem with rate or rhythm of heartbeat.
Means that heart beats too quickly, too slowly, or with an irregular
pattern
◉ Tachycardia. Answer: heart beating faster than normal, type of
arrhythmia
◉ bradycardia. Answer: heart beating too slowly, type of arrhythmia
◉ atrial fibrillation. Answer: most common type of arrhythmia,
irregular and fast heartbeat
◉ congenital heart defects. Answer: problem with structure of heart,
present at birth. Most common type of heart defect. Can involve
valves, walls, or arteries and veins near heart. They can disrupt the
normal flow of blood through the heart, causing blood to slow down,
go in the wrong direction, go to the wrong place, or be blocked
completely
, ◉ congestive heart failure. Answer: condition in which the heart
can't pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. Can affect one or
both sides of the heart. causes blooded fluid to back up into the
lungs, buildup of fluid in the feet, ankles and legs (edema), tiredness
and shortness of breath. Common causes are coronary artery
disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes
◉ Hypothermia. Answer: body losing heat faster than it can produce
it, leading to abnormally low body temperature. body temperature
below 95F is medical emergency
◉ myocardial infarction. Answer: heart attack. Most happen when
clot in coronary artery blocks the supply of blood and oxygen to the
heart
◉ sickle cell anemia. Answer: disease in which the body produces
abnormally shaped red blood cells, shaped like a crescent or sickle.
They don't last as long, leading to anemia. They get stuck in blood
vessels, leading to blockage, pain, and organ damage. Caused by a
genetic problem, need 2 genes for disease to manifest. About 1 in 12
African Americans have 1 gene present. No widely-available cure.
◉ Varicose veins. Answer: swollen twisted veins that you can see
under the skin. Most common in legs. Hemorrhoids are a type of
varicose vein. Caused by damage or weakness in the one-way valves
in veins, causing back-up and pooling, swelling
