The defects which cause a newborn baby to be cyanotic.
Introduction:
Patent foramen ovale is also known as hole in the heart. This hole is present between the two upper chambers, that is, right and left atrium. The ventricular septal defect as well as patent foramen ovale may interfere with the normal circulation of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood.

- Several years ago, the deaths of several airline travelers led to the warning about “economic-class syndrome.” The idea is that economic-class passengers do not have as much leg room as passengers in more expensive seats, so they are more likely to sit essentially motionless for long periods of flights-conditions that may allow blood to pool and clots to form in the legs. This condition is called deep-vein thrombosis, or DVT. Given what you know about blood flow in the veins, explain why periodically getting up and moving around in a plane’s cabin during a long flight may lower the risk that a cloth will form.arrow_forwardWhat would you do to confirm that genetics is involved with familial hypertension and atherosclerosis?

Conclusion:arrow_forwardThere are a number of theories about the best time for cutting the cord. Delaying the cutting until pulsation ceases is one way to help ensure an adequate red blood cell count in the newborn. Late clamping of the cord: could cause over infusion with placental blood may precipitate transfer of blood from the child to the placenta thereby causing anemiaarrow_forwardMargination is the: 1) migration of white blood cells from the blood out to the tissues 2) production of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets 3) White blood cells line up on the blood vessel endothelium O 4) process of the differentiation of monocytes to macrophagesarrow_forward
- Tia developed Rheumatic heart disease when she was 19 years old that caused stenosis of her mitral valve. Long-standing mitral stenosis led to left atrial enlargement. She is 29 now and her cardiologist, Dr. Irma Wu, advised her replacement of the mitral valve. According to her doctor, after the valve replacement, she would require life-long blood thinners. Using your knowledge of physiology, explain how can clot formation be prevented prophylactically? Knowing ECG. Do you think you can predict atrial enlargement from ECG? Why or why not? Support your answer with reasoning.arrow_forwardBlood clotting is one of nature's most elegant creations, but it sometimes goes awry. Use your knowledge of different types of blood cells and the chemical aspects of the clotting process to answer the following: 1. After getting his blood cell count, Josh was informed that his platelet count was low. What is a typical platelet count? How would Josh's low platelet count impact his hemostasis after getting a cut on his forearm? (Be very specific) 2. Briefly explain the different roles of the three stages of the intrinsic blood clotting pathway 3. Explain how any event that prevents plasminogen from becoming fully activated would lead to a thromboembolic disorder. Identify all the chemicals that directly activate plasminogen. 4. Identify the two most common types of the genetic disorder called hemophilia. Explain how each of two types of hemophilia result in impaired hemostasis. 5. Explain how the endocrine system contributes to the homeostasis of blood oxygen levels.arrow_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_forward

She has also noticed that her heart rate increases when she does mild exercise (such as climbing the stairs or walking outside to get the mail). Think about the following: What could be causing this? Is it just due to her getting older? Is there reason to be concerned? What can be done to help her? 19. Identify which statements are correct based on the situation above? A.Aged person’s heart can't beat as fast during physical activities or times of stress as it did when you were younger. The number of heart beats per minute (heart rate) at rest does not change significantly with normal aging. B.The most common aging change is increased stiffness of the large arteries, called arteriosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries. C.With increasing age, people…arrow_forward
