HDL cholesterol: Lipoproteins‚ which are combinations of lipids (fats) and proteins‚ are the form in which lipids are transported in the blood. HDL cholesterol is considered the "good" cholesterol. The higher the HDL cholesterol level‚ the lower the risk of coronary artery disease. Triangle test- A sensory-based

Bruce’s right leg. (4 marks) Deep vein thrombosis refers to the formation of a blood clot in a deep vein in the leg. Deep vein thrombosis tends to occur in leg veins‚ such as the popliteal or femoral veins‚ as well as deep veins within the pelvis. The blocked vein in Bruce’s right led caused edema and led to tissue ischemia. Edema developed inferior to the blocked vein. Blockage of the vein increased the capillary hydrostatic pressure increased the amount of fluid that flowed from the capillaries

When I was a sixth grader at St. Martha I sat next to a girl named Jordan in math class‚ I noticed she was wearing a silver bracelet with red writing on it. I asked her what kind of bracelet it was‚ she told me it was a medical bracelet that she had to wear due to her being a haemophilia. She proceeded to go on to explain to me what haemophilia was and that she had to wear the bracelet in case of an emergency. She told me it was a blood disease that prevented her blood from clotting and that if she
