Increased level of pO2 causes spasm of the umbilical arteries and‚ as follows‚ decreased venous return to the right atrium. The vascular resistance in the lungs drops and all cardiac output flows through the pulmonary vessels now. Increased return to the heart through the pulmonary veins causes the raised pressure in the left atrium. As result of the changes described above foramen ovale is closed because the pressure in the left atrium becomes higher than in the right atrium. So‚ the blood cannot move from

Accounting rate of return The accounting rate of return (ARR) is a way of comparing the profits you expect to make from an investment to the amount you need to invest. The ARR is normally calculated as the average annual profit you expect over the life of an investment project‚ compared with the average amount of capital invested. For example‚ if a project requires an average investment of £100‚000 and is expected to produce an average annual profit of £15‚000‚ the ARR would be 15 per cent. The

Heart Failure is a disease state caused by a dysfunction or structural deviation in the cardiac system that inhibits the heart’s ventricles from filling and ejecting blood in its fullest capacity. When the heart’s ability to effectively pump blood decreases it lacks the ability to meet the need for blood in all other areas of the body. 1-3 Heart failure is considered a progressive condition that originates from a cardiovascular event that damages the function of the heart to contract and relax.1

Totally Artificial Heart (TAH) The US government funded a project to create a totally artificial heart in 1964. Bioengineers thought that a fully functional totally artificial heart would have been created within the next 10 years. In 1964 the Liotta TAH was used to bridge the period between the need for a transplant and the provision of a heart from a donor. The totally artificial heart kept the patient alive for 64 hours‚ at which point the patient received a transplant and died 32 hours later

Resting metabolic rate can vary with age independently from body mass changes in the Colorado potato beetle‚ Leptinotarsa decemlineata. Abstract A study was done by Saija Pironine‚ leena Lindstrom‚ and Anne Lyytinen in the Journal of Insect Physiology‚ to investigate the age dependence of resting metabolic rate in Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsadecemlineata) from adult emergence until age 10 days. In their hypothesis they expected to see a bell shaped pattern in metabolic rate with adult age

Risk Factors Congestive Heart Failure can be brought on by many conditions. These conditions include Coronary Artery Disease‚ Heart Attack‚ and lastly Cardiomyopathy. Coronary artery disease can develop in humans after years over time after years of fatty deposits in the vascular system (Arteriosclerosis). After a heart attack the heart muscles are weakened and cannot perform the way they could prior to the attack. Therefore‚ as the muscles lose their pumping ability the heart cannot work to its full
