Structure of main Body Systems: Our body is made up of many different systems which help us to keep alive. Without these systems our organs would not be able to functions at all. There are 10 main systems in our body which include the cardiovascular system‚ the digestive system‚ the renal system‚ the nervous system‚ the reproductive system‚ the immune system‚ the respiratory system‚ the lymphatic system‚ the muscular –skeletal system and lastly the endocrine system. Each of these systems has their own functions

peripheral edema and engorgement of the kidney and other organs. Heart failure not only effects the heart but also other systems in the body. The cardiovascular system is affected by the heart not being able to pump blood throughout the body. Also‚ as the blood backs up into the left atrium‚ blood backs up into the lungs causing pulmonary congestion which affects the respiratory system. When blood backs up into the right atrium‚ the kidneys become engorged which cause problems with the renal

Anatomy The pertinent anatomy for cardiac pacing includes the sinoatrial (SA) node‚ the atrioventricular (AV) node‚ and the His-Purkinje system (Figure 1.1). The SA node is located at the superior aspect of the crista terminalis (not pictured)‚

pumping motion. The principle of the heart-lung machine (also known cardiopulmonary bypass) is actually quite simple. It permits the heart to be operated on safely by maintaining the circulation of oxygenated blood throughout the cardiovascular system. It represents a continuous loop; as the rich-oxygen blood goes into the body‚ poor-oxygen blood returns from the body and is drained into the pump completing the circuit. The machine basically consists of a pump (to replace the heart) and an oxygenator

Children watching television more than two hours a day increases the risk of becoming obese (17%)‚ cardiovascular system problems (15%) and increases cholesterol in the blood (15 %).Besides‚ according to research by British scientists‚ if the children watch TV more than 2 hours per day‚ they will have asthma risk twice higher than other children who watch TV less
