PATH CH 2
circulatory shock
a condition resulting from a serious reduction of blood flow resulting in reduced oxygen supply to the tissues
Hyperemia
a condition which refers to excess blood in a body part is called
embolus
a foreign particle that becomes impacted in a blood vessel
thromosis
a term which refers to the formation of a solid mass, or blood clot, withing the HEARTor VESSELS is called
passive hyperemia
accumulation of blood in a part due to venous obstruciton
infarct
an area of necrotic tissue that results from a faulty blood supply to the area is called
fragments of thrombi, bacteria, tumor cells, air
an embolus may consist of
embolus
an object that floating through the BLOODSTREAM is referred as an
ischemia
arterial thrombosis
hemopericardium
bleeding into the pericardial cavity
hemoperitoneum
bleeding into the peritoneal cavity
hemothorax
bleeding into the pleural cavity
embolism
blockage of a blood vessel by some foreign object floating to the site in the blood stream
hemoptysis
blood in the lungs (sputum)
hemoptysis
blood in the sputum is referred to as
hematemesis
blood in the vomit (stomach)
necrosis
death of a localized area of tissue is a condition known as
eschemia
decreased blood flow to a body part is a condition called
ischemia
decreased blood flow to a body part is called
ischemia
deficiency of blood in a part of the body
hemorrhage
escape of blood from the vascular system
hemorrhage
escape of blood from vascular system
active hyperemia
excess blood in a body part which was actively or purposefully taken there
passive hyperemia
extra blood in an area that is NOT a result of the arteries delivering the extra blood, but because the blood cannot leave is called
thrombosis
formation of a blood clot attached to the wall of the heart or blood vessels
anasarca
generalized edema of the subcutaneous tissue
pathological hyperemia
hyperemia which is a result of a disease process
active hyperemia
increased arterial circulation leading to congestion of blood
infarction
ischemic necrosis is another term for
true gangrene
necrotic tissue which has been invaded by bacteria is called
Injury to the lining of the heart or vessels, diseases of the blood, slowing of the blood flow
reasons for the formation of thrombi
infarct
the area of tissue which dies as a result of ischemia is called
embolism
the condition of an object having floated through the bloodstream and causing an obstruction of a vessel is
hemorrhage
the escape of blood from the vascular system
epistaxis
the medical term for nose bleed
coagulation
the process of blood changing from a liquid into a semi-solid state is called
embolus
thrombi, clumps of bacteria, fat globules, foreign particles and gas or air bubbles are all examples of an
gangrene
venous thrombosis may cause
agglutination
what condition may result from embolism
passive hyperemia
when venous drainage from an area is decreased the condition is called
disease of the blood vessels, sluggish circulation, increased viscosity of the blood, injury to the blood vessels
which of the following predisposes to thrombosis
cyanosis
blood not properly oxygenated resulting in bluish discoloration of the tissues
hypostatic congestion
blood settling to the dependant parts of the living body when circulation is decreased is called
embolus
a free-flowing particle in the blood
circulatory shock
a general term used to designate the state of collapse that follows severe tissue injury is
infarct
a mass of necrotic tissue that results from circulatory obstruction
thrombus
a mass or clot within the HEART or VESSELS
ischemia
of the following pathological conditions, the one that is most closely associated with infarction is
always
PASSIVE hyperemia is ________________ pathological
thrombus
a blood clot that has formed within the HEART or VESSEL during life is referred to as
