What is the order of the layers of blood vessels (from lumen to external)
tunica interna, tunica media, tunica externa
1 of 16
what is the composition of the tunica interna
endothelium
2 of 16
what is the composition of the tunica media
smooth muscle
3 of 16
what is the composition of the tunica externa
collagen and elastin
4 of 16
what are deep veins
veins that travel with arteries with the same name
5 of 16
what are superficial veins
veins in the superficial fascia

outline the blood flow to the right arm
ascending aorta -> aortic arch -> brachiocephalic a. -> right subclavian a. -> axillary a. -> brachial a. -> ulnar and radial a. -> deep and superficial palmar arches -> capillaries -> (sup) basilic v. and cephalic v. (connect in cubital fossa via medial

outline the blood flow to the left arm
ascending aorta -> brachiocephalic a. -> left subclavian a. -> axillary a. -> brachial a. -> ulnar and radial a. -> deep and superficial palmar arches -> capillaries -> (sup) basilic v. and cephalic v. (connect in cubital fossa via medial cubital vein)

how does the blood flow to the left and right arm differ
right has brachiocephalic a. off the aortic arch then subclavian a., left subclavian a. arises of aortic arch (no brachiocephalic)
9 of 16
what are the superficial veins of the upper limb
cephalic and basilic - connected by medial cubital
10 of 16
what are the deep veins of the upper limb
ulnar and radial
11 of 16
what is the blood flow of the lower limb
Ascending aorta -> aortic arch -> descending aorta -> thoracic aorta -> abdominal aorta -> common iliac a. -> external iliac a. -> femoral artery (-> profunder brach) -> popliteal a. -> ant. tibial a. -> post. tibial a. , dorsal pedis a. and fibular/

where do you feel for pulses
femoral (femoral triangle), popliteal (knee), post. tibial (inf. to medial malleolus), dorsal pedis (dorsal foot, lateral to big toe)
13 of 16
what is the venous pump
when the great saphoneous vein joins to the deep veins
