Question

Pathophysiology: Pick a disease that effects all three.

Multisystem issues are often a consequence of a failing body system and identification and consideration to determine the underlying cause of illness is essential. Though illness may create multisystem issues and may affect many body systems, for this assignment you will focus on three: renal, pulmonary, and circulatory systems.

You will discuss a specific illness, disorder or disease and the

-interrelationship with the renal, pulmonary, and circulatory systems, specifically identifying and describing how an alternation in one system may affect one or more of other two body systems.

-Explain how the body tries to compensate for a disorder, with assistance or reliance on another body system

Answer 1

Atherosclerosis:
Atherosclerosis is a complex multicellular disease, it is a pathology for various diseases in the body system. It is a condition artery to become narrowed and harden due to the building of plaque in the artery walls. when arteries carry blood to the entire body system endothelium(lining of the artery) becomes damage due to cholesterol buildup in the artery wall. When there is excess plaque buildup, there is an accumulation of cholesterol, calcium and other substances which blood carries to other systems. when the blood flow disrupts due to blood clot it is a life-threatening condition. It blocks the artery can cause heart attack and stroke and affect the pulmonary circulation and renal circulation the patient gets symptoms like difficulty breathing, paralysis, weakness, angina, chest pain, coughing. when renal artery blocks people get loss of appetite, swelling of hands and feet and difficulty concentration.
Atherosclerosis cause no symptoms in the initial stage when the coronary artery narrowed it constrict the blood flow. Other blood vessels near to the affected artery can expand to compensation and do the work, it is called collateral circulation. so there will not be any warning signs.
