|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| aneurysmectomy | surgical excision of an aneurysm
🗑
|
||||

🗑
|
||||
| coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) | surgical technique to bring a new blood supply to heart muscles by detouring around blocked arteries
🗑
|
||||
| defibrillation | application of an electric shock to the myocardium through the chest wall to restore normal cardiac rhythm
🗑
|
||||
| embolectomy | surgical removal of an embolus or clot
🗑
|
||||
| femoropopliteal bypass | surgery to establish an alternate route from femoral artery to popliteal artery to bypass obstructive portion
🗑
|
||||
| hemorrhoidectomy | excision of hemorrhoids, the varicosed veins in the rectal region
🗑
|
||||
| intracoronary thrmobolytic therapy | an injection of a medication in a blocked coronary vessel to dissolve blood clots
🗑
|
||||
| laser angioplasty | the use of light amplicfication by simulated emission of radiation or laser beam to open blocked arteries especially in lower extremities
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| treadmill stress test | test to assess the ability of the coronary circulation to handle the increased load placed on the heart by exercise
🗑
|
||||
| complete blood count | basic blood screening that includes tests on hemoglobin, hematocrit, red blood cell morphology; leukocyte count, and WBC's types
🗑
|
||||

||||
| prothrombin time (PT) | test to determine certain coagulation activity defects; also used to monitor anti-coagulation therapy
🗑
|
||||
| bone marrow biopsy | needle puncture to remove bone marrow for study, usually from the sternum or ilium, to determine certain blood cell diseases, such as leukemia and anemia

||||
| extracorporeal | occurring outside the body
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
