Understanding the Anatomy Behind Clinical Procedures

Professor Kimberly Topp of UCSF's Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Science explores the anatomy behind clinical procedures. This presentation is part of the course, Basic Principles Underlying Modern Medicine, which mirrors the first block of coursework included in the Essential Core of the UCSF Medical School curriculum.

sorry. don't mean to be a punk... but I had to know most of this stuff to pass the 8th. grade.

The large veins (vena cavae) bring unoxygenated blood to the heart, then the blood goes through the pulmonary artery to be delivered to the lungs where there is exchanged of oxygen and carbon dioxide. The oxygenatedd blood is delivered to the heart via the pulmonary VEIN and it passes through the mitral valve, then to the aorta, then to the general circulation.

Karlwashere, hi!

Don't be sarcastic because in reality, she is talking "advanced" knowledge. I do not believe that a person without medical background can fully understand her. She just makes it easy for everyone to grasp the concepts behind common clinical procedures. I have taken basic CPR and nowhere it is being taught like this speaker in this video presented it to the online audience.

I beg your pardon, but it is probably better to be a little bit humble. We learn more that way.

She means that the heart muscle itself is supplied by coronary arteries, left & right. They come from the aorta. The aorta supplies blood to the rest of the body. Vena cavae just bring blood to the heart chambers to be eventually delivered to the lungs for oxygenation. Once the blood is oxygenated, it goes back to the heart and is pumped to the systemic circulation once the heart contracts (systole). As the heart relaxes (diastole), that's when the coronary A bring blood to the heart muscle.

more like pre 101.

"advanced" Hardly.
