Edema- Due to the weakness of the heart pumping less fluid to the kidneys. Kidneys release renin‚ angiotensin‚ and aldosterone which holds on to sodium and attracts fluid into the vascular system.

Shock Shock is a syndrome characterized by decreased tissue perfusion and impaired cellular metabolism. This results in an imbalance between the supply of and demand for oxygen and nutrients. The exchange of oxygen and nutrients at the cellular level is essential to life. When a cell experiences a state of hypoperfusion‚ the demand for oxygen and nutrients exceeds the supply at the microcirculatory level. Classification of Shock The four main categories of shock are * cardiogenic‚: *

Describe the pathological progression of left ventricular failure. Note: continue through both sides of the heart. Include forward failure and backward failure in your discussion Heart failure is a state of circulatory congestion that results from any kind of myocardial dysfunction. It is most commonly seen in the left ventricle but can lead to right ventricular failure‚ a condition called biventricular failure. A large myocardial infarction can generally lead to ventricular failure.

to use‚ in order to balance her homeostasis. When we are dehydrated‚ we are thirsty and drink water. Is this part of negative or positive feedback control systems? Explain your reasoning. Feeling thirsty is part of a negative feedback because angiotensin‚ a hormone that tells the brain it is thirsty‚ makes you want to drink more water. Once you have consumed enough water‚ this hormone stops stimulating the brain and the thirst goes away. In this case‚ hormones trigger an effect so that you want
