Body Systems
Acts as a carrier service for the immune system by
transporting pathogens to the lymph nodes where
they can be destroyed by immunity cells.
Lymphatic System
2 Top Chambers of the heart
Right Atrium (RA)
Left Atrium (LA)
Complete Blood Count(cbc)
Lavender
Have thin walls
They are superficial
Have no pulse
Veins
CMP
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel
Comprised of: Heart,Veins,Arteries,Capillaries
Cardiovascular
Lower 2 Chambers of the heart
Right Ventricle (RV)
Left Ventricle (LV)
PT/PTT, PT/INR
Light Blue
Move blood away from heart & toward the capillaries
Arteries
PTT
partial thromboplastin time
Absorption of nutrients
Elimination of wastes
Digestive System
It is deoxygenated blood being sent from the body through the right atrium, then the right ventricle, to the lungs to be oxygenated.
Pulmonary Circulation
Total Cholesterol /HDL/LDL
Green, Gold, SST, Tiger or Red
Microscopic vessels that are so small only
one cell can flow through at a time.
Capillary Beds
CVAD
central venous access device
Regulation of body processes using hormones
Endocrine System
It is oxygenated blood moving from the lungs, to the heart’s left atriumand left ventricle, and then through the aorta (the largest artery in the body) to the rest of the body.
Systemic Circulation
Potassium (K)
green, sst, tiger, gold or Red
Where arteries join together
Bifurcation
NHA
National
Healthcare
Association
Removes foreign substances
Combats disease
Maintains tissue fluid balance
Absorbs fats from digestive tract
Works closely with the Lymphatic System
Immune System
send blood back towards the heart
veins
ESR (Sedimentation rate)
lavender or black
Where veins join together
Confluences
