2. Left ventricular thrombus - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left_ventricular_thrombus

   With the absence of monocytes and macrophages, chances of LVT formation are very high. Failure to clear cellular debris from the infarct compromises the endothelial lining of the left ventricle and exposes the damaged tissue to the blood. [6] The response is to build a thrombus composed of fibrin, red blood cells and platelets. [1]

3. Hemodynamics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemodynamics

   A Reynolds number of less than 2300 is laminar fluid flow, which is characterized by constant flow motion, whereas a value of over 4000, is represented as turbulent flow. [16] Due to its smaller radius and lowest velocity compared to other vessels, the Reynolds number at the capillaries is very low, resulting in laminar instead of turbulent flow.

4. Eddy (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_(fluid_dynamics)

   Reynolds Experiment (1883). Osborne Reynolds standing beside his apparatus. In 1883, scientist Osborne Reynolds conducted a fluid dynamics experiment involving water and dye, where he adjusted the velocities of the fluids and observed the transition from laminar to turbulent flow, characterized by the formation of eddies and vortices. [5]

5. Laminar–turbulent transition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laminar–turbulent_transition

   When many random vortices erupt as turbulence onsets, the generalized freezing of laminar slip (laminar interlocking) is associated with noise and a dramatic increase in resistance to flow. This might also explain the parabolic isovelocity profile of laminar flow abruptly changing to the flattened profile of turbulent flow – as laminar slip ...

6. Cardiology diagnostic tests and procedures - Wikipedia

   A variety of blood tests are available for analyzing cholesterol transport behavior, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, lipoprotein little a, homocysteine, C-reactive protein, blood sugar control: fasting, after eating or averages using glycated albumen or hemoglobin, myoglobin, creatine kinase, troponin, brain-type natriuretic peptide, etc. to assess the evolution of coronary artery disease and ...

7. Diagnosis of myocardial infarction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diagnosis_of_myocardial...

   The diagnosis of myocardial infarction requires two out of three components (history, ECG, and enzymes). When damage to the heart occurs, levels of cardiac markers rise over time, which is why blood tests for them are taken over a 24-hour period. Because these enzyme levels are not elevated immediately following a heart attack, patients ...

8. Cardiomyopathy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiomyopathy

   Treatment depends on the type of cardiomyopathy and condition of disease, but may include medication (conservative treatment) or iatrogenic/implanted pacemakers for slow heart rates, defibrillators for those prone to fatal heart rhythms, ventricular assist devices (VADs) for severe heart failure, or catheter ablation for recurring dysrhythmias ...

9. Impedance cardiography - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_cardiography

   Impedance cardiography (ICG) is a non-invasive technology measuring total electrical conductivity of the thorax and its changes in time to process continuously a number of cardiodynamic parameters, such as stroke volume (SV), heart rate (HR), cardiac output (CO), ventricular ejection time (VET), pre-ejection period and used to detect the impedance changes caused by a high-frequency, low ...
