Answer:

1-The anatomical structures that produce the sounds lub and dub are called mitral and tricuspid valves and aortic and pulmonary valves

Korotkov sounds are the sounds that doctors hear during the taking and determination of blood pressure, using a non-invasive procedure

The difference between Korotkoff sounds and lub-dub sounds is that while the former are the sounds that doctors hear while taking blood pressure, the latter are due to the closing of the heart valves.

2- The main findings in auscultation are: Heart sounds, murmurs and friction

3-The pressure in the veins is lower than the blood pressure, because the distensibility of the blood vessels is large, a factor that directly influences the pressure.

4-Through a good diet

5-The phrase "blood is thicker than water" is used to mean that family ties are more important than anything else.

It can be a symptom of a polycythemia vera that causes the blood to thicken

Explanation:

1-For each beat, the heart emits two heart sounds (lub-dub) separated from each other by a silence. The closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves at the beginning of the systole causes the first part (lub). The second portion of the lubricant is difficult due to the closure of the aortic and pulmonary valves at the end of the ventricular systole.

Korotkoff's method consists of five phases:

PHASE 1: When the pulsed sleeve is deflated, the first noise indicating the Systolic Blood Pressure (PAS)

PHASE 2: The noise loses intensity and is heard as a breath. It has no clinical importance.

PHASE 3: A softer thud is heard. It has no clinical importance.

PHASE 4: In this phase the noise goes out and in some situations such as fever, anemia, hyperthyroidism, pregnancy, among others, phase 5 is often absent. In these cases, phase 4 indicates the value of diastolic blood pressure.

PHASE 5: Noises cease, in this way, the last noise heard will be the one that indicates diastolic blood pressure (PAD)

In a normal person (without any arterial disease), no sound should be heard when a stethoscope is placed over the brachial artery in the antecubital fossa. When the heart is delayed, the pulses are transmitted by the flow of laminar blood through the arteries and no sound is produced. However, if the pressure drops to a level equal to the patient's systolic blood pressure, it will be Korotkoff's first sound.

2-The type of information has to do with feelings, the feeling of a very close friend who was separating, where love had not died and memories were still latent.

4-Some foods rich in vitamin C, water and antioxidants such as orange, pepper or garlic have properties that improve blood circulation, helping to reduce swelling of the feet, leg pains and fluid retention, which are Frequent symptoms in people who have poor circulation, so the consumption of this type of food should be daily.

5-Polycythemia vera is a disease that causes the body to produce too many red blood cells. The blood may become too thick. This causes serious health problems. This disease increases the risk of abnormal blood clots, which could cause a stroke.

1. What anatomical structure of the heart produces the "lub" and "dub" sounds? What are Korotkoff sounds? How are Korotkoff sounds different from the "lub" "dub" sounds?

heart sounds are normally produced by the closing of valves in the heart in a healthy patients there are normally two heart sounds that can be auscultated using a stethoscope on physical exam

S1 "Lub" corresponds with the closure of the "Atrioventricular Valve"

S2"Dub" Corresponds with the closure of the "semilunar valves"

2. What is the diagnostic value of auscultating the heart? What type of information can you get from listening to your heart? (Like Roxette did back in 1988).

A hollow muscular organ lying slightly to the left of the midline of the chest that pumps the blood through the cardiovascluar system

3.Why is it that pressure in your arteries is higher than pressure in your veins?

Arteris because they flow with your veins and heart

4. How can you improve poor circulation? Explain your answer.

well you can try massaging the area, work out the area but befor you do anything go ask a doctor whats the best way to deal with it

5. What do they mean when they say that "blood is thicker than water"? What makes blood thick?

it means family relationships are stronger or more important than relationships with other people.
