Health & Medicine on Khan Academy: No organ quite symbolizes love like the heart. One reason may be that your heart helps you live, by moving ~5 liters (1.3 gallons) of blood through almost 100,000 kilometers (62,000 miles) of blood vessels every single minute! It has to do this all day, everyday, without ever taking a vacation! Now that is true love. Learn about how the heart works, how blood flows through the heart, where the blood goes after it leaves the heart, and what your heart is doing when it makes the sound “Lub Dub.”

What a fancy word for a video title lol

To summarize (please correct me if I am wrong): Thrombus: the local blood clot Thrombosis: the condition caused by thrombus Embolus: any object in blood that can stop blood flowing, including air, thrombus, etc Embolism: the condition that an embolus blocks a blood vessel Thromboembolus: an thrombus in the bloodstream which travels away from where it was originally formed Thromboembolism: the condition caused by thromboembolus. (additional notes: there does not seem to be word 'thrombolism', but thrombosis instead)

I am so thankful for this channel.....wish I would have saw it in my a&P 2 course I would have got an A instead of a B+......certain concepts I could not just put my finger on it. Especially some of the Immune System now with patho I feel an A is coming! Thanks for your time and wisdom.

Love your biology movies! Watched all of them so far!

Medical specialist? What kind of specialist? Your terminology is extremely vague.

@ferndalealimondo3988 3 года назад

Does someone know the pathophysiology of thromboembolism?

@moredecay347 2 года назад

thanks that did clarify it more!

@petercourt 13 лет назад

@vickiormindyb Perhaps from the four degrees he has obtained and very kindly shared. I don't see the need for the bigotry and authoritarian stance, personally I feel he explains the difference rather well?

@Smood47 12 лет назад

LOL. He is kind of right though. Thrombo-embolus is not really the correct terminology. While I think its fine to teach at this level for the general public, for a more authoritative and complete look at this... it should probably be taught by an MD. I would not trust any other even healthcare professional on the topic.

@sxtbzhi 13 лет назад

@vickiormindyb Although what you said has certain truth in it, what Khanacademy said is not wrong at all. It is true that a thrombus is formed under static conditions and that it doesn't move under some circumstances,but it can bedislodged, and become free flowing, as the nature of this clot changes from a thrombus to a embolus or thrombo-embolus. It is a thrombus due to the nature of its formation, it is an embolus becase of its physiological consequence, the blockage of a blood vessel.

@Smood47 12 лет назад

No it would not be called a thrombo-embolus. The term thrombo-embolism indicates that both thrombosis and embolism is occurring but to describe the free flowing clot it would simply be called Embolus.

Wow, thanks so much for posting this. Its exactly what I need for my exam tomorrow: quick and dirty with not too much detail.

This is the most basic pathology, you really don't need to be a MD to understand or teach it.

@Smood47 11 лет назад

Is she a Physician?

@Smood47 11 лет назад

Firstly, do not put words in my mouth. I merely asked if she was a physician, nothing more. Secondly, there is definitely knowledge available for everyone. I just feel when it comes to a topic like medicine it shouldn't be taught by a non-professional. I also feel most professionals would agree with my sentiments on that because they have a deeper understanding of medicine and medical practice then a lay person armed with google.
