11. Clinical Applications
a.
A 60-year-old man complains of chest pain during moderate exercise. The pain goes away after he
rests for a while. What is the likely cause of the pain? ____________________________________________
A partially blocked coronary artery.
Without treatment, what complications may arise? ______________________________________________
He may have a heart attack.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
b. An accident victim has lost considerable blood. His blood pressure is only slightly below normal, and
his pulse rate is elevated. How is the body compensating for the loss of blood? _____________________
The lost blood has been
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
replaced by the reserve blood supply in the spleen.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
c.
A patient has a blood clot in the right femoral vein. If a part of the clot should break loose, where is it
likely to lodge? _______________________________________________________________________________
In a pulmonary artery.
Would this be a serious complication? _________________________________________________
Explain.
Yes
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
If blood flow to the lungs is mostly blocked, oxygenation of blood is drastically reduced which may cause
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
death.
