I had tight stockings on to protect from blood clots.

And in the last video we saw that one of these clots can go downstream to some point where the arteries get narrow enough so that they actually block the arteries.

The network of blood vessels that branch over the surface of the heart are called coronary arteries

So arteries are blood vessels from the heart.

Causes Polyarteritis nodosa is a disease of unknown cause that affects arteries, the blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to organs and tissues.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a class of diseases that involve the heart or blood vessels.

We're going to go into a lot more detail when we actually cover the heart and the circulatory system, but just remember, arteries go away.

There are three major types of blood vessels the arteries, which carry the blood away from the heart the capillaries, which enable the actual exchange of water and chemicals between the blood and the tissues and the veins, which carry blood from the capillaries back toward the heart.

While humans, as well as other vertebrates, have a closed cardiovascular system (meaning that the blood never leaves the network of arteries, veins and capillaries), some invertebrate groups have an open cardiovascular system.

Heart disease from clogged arteries, atherosclerosis.

I mean, you've got red ones, and blue ones, and the blue ones are the veins, and the red ones are the arteries but are they part of the systemic flow, or pulmonary flow, or something else?

Atherosclerosis can happen in any part of the coronary arteries

It would be this thrombogenic material, the clots around it.

Low oxygen levels, if present for a prolonged period, can result in narrowing of the arteries in the lungs, while emphysema leads to breakdown of capillaries in the lungs.

The arteries that they are talking about are the arteries that actually provide blood to the heart.

And so the yellow is the fatty plaque, and panel A is a man.

Atherosclerosis is the process by which the arteries become gradually narrowed and hardened

He's got a beer belly in his coronary arteries.

Artificial hearts, for example, can cause clots to form when blood hits their surface the girdle material and these clots can cause strokes and death.

So these capillaries in the capillaries we get oxygen.

Let me write that down.

And these are called coronary arteries.

The inquest found that he died of arteriosclerosis... a disease of the coronary arteries.

The smallest blood vessels are called capillaries.

And so when people talk about arteries getting blocked or getting clogged, they're talking about the coronary arteries.

And you've probably heard of arteries.

The pulmonary veins drain blood and into the left atrium, right.

Vascular grafting is the use of transplanted or prosthetic blood vessels in surgical procedures.

Could the sun activate those stores into the circulation, and there in the circulation do its good things for your cardiovascular system?

And there's a special word for these arteries and veins.

He had terrible Multiple Sclerosis.

The coronary arteries supply the heart with blood

Lucky the blood vessels are not touched.

The smallest blood vessels are called capillaries we've got 19 billion of them in our bodies.

However, angiography is only motion or still images of dye mixed with the blood with the arterial lumen and never show atheroma the wall of arteries, including atheroma with the arterial wall remain invisible.

After being officially recognized and documented in Japan, these sudden heart attacks and strokes were quickly linked to stress.

You could be attacked by white blood cells in the arteries.

Actually they're usually more than that.

There is an association with a delay in atherosclerosis in an animal model.

If we go down the small pathway a little bit farther, we're entering the era of nanomedicine, the ability to make devices super small to the point where we can design red blood cells or microrobots that will monitor our blood system or immune system, or even those that might clear out the clots from our arteries.

And this right over here in red is called the right coronary arteries or the RCA.

However, an interruption of the embryonic blood supply to the arteries that lie under the collarbone (subclavian arteries) at about the 46th day of embryonic development is the prevailing theory.

There was incremental significant increase in CIMT with the number coronary vessel involved.

This animation will show how atherosclerosis develops in the heart

Earth's respiratory and circulatory systems.
