Perfusion is measured as the rate at which blood is delivered to tissue, [2] or volume of blood per unit time (blood flow) per unit tissue mass. The SI unit is m 3 /(s·kg) [citation needed], although for human organs perfusion is typically reported in ml/min/g. [3] The word is derived from the French verb perfuser, meaning to "pour over or ...
A uranate is a ternary oxide involving the element uranium in one of the oxidation states 4, 5 or 6. A typical chemical formula is M x U y O z , where M represents a cation. The uranium atom in uranates(VI) has two short collinear U–O bonds and either four or six more next nearest oxygen atoms. [ 1 ]
This is a list of roots, suffixes, and prefixes used in medical terminology, their meanings, and their etymologies. Most of them are combining forms in Neo-Latin and hence international scientific vocabulary. There are a few general rules about how they combine.
A perfusionist in front of a heart–lung machine (upper right) early in a coronary artery bypass surgery. A cardiovascular perfusionist, clinical perfusionist or perfusiologist, and occasionally a cardiopulmonary bypass doctor [1] [2] or clinical perfusion scientist, [3] is a healthcare professional who operates the cardiopulmonary bypass machine (heart–lung machine) during cardiac surgery ...
Perfusion is the passage of fluid through the lymphatic system or blood vessels to an organ or a tissue. [1] The practice of perfusion scanning is the process by which this perfusion can be observed, recorded and quantified. The term perfusion scanning encompasses a wide range of medical imaging modalities. [2]
Medical terminology often uses words created using prefixes and suffixes in Latin and Ancient Greek. In medicine, their meanings, and their etymology, are informed by the language of origin. Prefixes and suffixes, primarily in Greek—but also in Latin, have a droppable -o-. Medical roots generally go together according to language: Greek ...
Sodium uranate may be obtained in the amorphous form by heating together urano-uranic oxide and sodium chlorate; or by heating sodium uranyl acetate or carbonate. The crystalline form is produced by adding the green oxide in small quantities to fused sodium chloride, or by dissolving the amorphous form in fused sodium chloride, and allowing ...
Hemoperfusion or hæmoperfusion (see spelling differences) is a method of filtering the blood extracorporeally (that is, outside the body) to remove a toxin.As with other extracorporeal methods, such as hemodialysis (HD), hemofiltration (HF), and hemodiafiltration (HDF), the blood travels from the patient into a machine, gets filtered, and then travels back into the patient, typically by ...
