E kamaʻilio wale anei kākou e pili ana i nā kīʻaha koko i loko o ko kākou kino: nā ʻaʻa koko a me nā aʻa koko?

Ua noʻonoʻo paha ʻoe pehea e kahe ai kēia koko i mua a i hope i loko o ko kākou kino? E noʻonoʻo wale, e like me nā alanui ma ke kūlanakauhale nui, loaʻa i ko kākou kino kahi ʻōnaehana kūikawā o nā alanui e lawe ai i ke koko. Ua kapa ʻia kēia mau alanui he mau aʻa a me nā veins, he mea nui loa ia no ko kākou ola a me ko kākou olakino. No laila, i kēia lā, e kamaʻilio maʻalahi kākou e pili ana i ke ʻano o kēia mau aʻa a me nā veins, pehea ko lākou koʻikoʻi i ko kākou kino, a me nā mea hiki iā kākou ke hana e mālama iā lākou i ke olakino.

He aha kēia 'ʻōnaehana koko' i loko o ko kākou kino? (ʻōnaehana kaapuni)

I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, kapa mākou i kēia ʻo ka ʻōnaehana hoʻopuni koko . Ua like kēia me ka 'lawelawe halihali' holomua loa i loko o ko mākou kino. ʻO ka 'mīkini' nui o kēia lawelawe ʻo ko mākou puʻuwai . Ke hele nei ke koko i pamu ʻia e ka puʻuwai ma ke kino holoʻokoʻa ma nā 'alanui' i kapa ʻia ʻo nā aʻa a me nā veins.

E noʻonoʻo e pili ana i ia mea, ʻo kēia koko ka mea e lawe i ka oxygen a me nā meaʻai e pono ai kēlā me kēia cell i loko o ko kākou kino, e like me ka lawe ʻana mai i ka meaʻai i ka home. Eia kekahi, lawe pū kēia mau 'kīʻaha koko' i nā huahana ʻōpala i makemake ʻole ʻia i hana ʻia e nā cell, e like me ke kalapona ʻokikene . No laila i kēia manawa hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i ke koʻikoʻi o ka hana pono ʻana o kēia ʻōnaehana, ʻeā?

He aha nā ʻAʻa? – ʻO nā 'alanui nui' e holo ana mai ka puʻuwai a puni ke kino

ʻAe, e nānā mua kākou i ke ʻano o nā ʻAʻa. I ka ʻōlelo maʻalahi, ʻo nā ʻaʻa nā kīʻaha koko e lawe ana i ke koko maʻemaʻe a piha i ka oxygen mai ka puʻuwai a i nā ʻāpana āpau o ke kino (koe wale nō hoʻokahi ʻaʻa kūikawā, a mākou e kamaʻilio ai ma hope). Ua like lākou me nā 'alanui nui' o ke kūlanakauhale, e lawe ana i ke koko mai ke 'kikowaena kūlanakauhale', ʻo ka puʻuwai, me ka wikiwiki. ʻUlaʻula pinepine ke koko i loko o nā ʻaʻa no ka mea ua ʻoi aku ka nui o ka oxygen.

ʻOi aku ka mānoanoa a me ka ikaika o nā paia o kēia mau aʻa ma mua o ko nā aʻa koko. ʻO kēia no ka mea pono lākou e kū i ke kaomi kiʻekiʻe i hana ʻia i ka wā e pamu ai ka puʻuwai i ke koko. E noʻonoʻo iā ia e like me ka paipu e lawe ana i ka wai mai kahi pahu wai. ʻO ke aʻa koko nui loa i loko o ko mākou kino ʻo ia ka aorta . Maanei kahi e hoʻolaha ʻia ai ke koko i nā aʻa koko liʻiliʻi ʻē aʻe, i kapa ʻia ʻo arterioles .

He aha inā he pilikia kou me kou mau aʻa?

Eia nō naʻe, hiki i kēia mau 'alanui nui' ke loaʻa nā pilikia. ʻO ka pilikia nui ka paʻakikī a me ka haiki ʻana o nā paia o ke aʻa, i ʻike ʻia ʻo atherosclerosis . ʻO kēia ka wā e hōʻiliʻili ai ka cholesterol a me ka momona i makemake ʻole ʻia mai nā meaʻai a mākou e ʻai ai i loko o nā aʻa ma ke ʻano he 'plaque' , e ālai ana i ke kahe ʻana o ke koko. Ua like ia me ka ʻōpala e hōʻiliʻili ana i loko o kahi paipu wai kahiko.

He aha ka mea e hana ʻia inā hana ʻia kēia? Hiki ke ālai ʻia nā aʻa e hoʻolako ana i ke koko i ka puʻuwai (i kapa ʻia ʻo nā aʻa coronary ), e hana ana i ka hōʻeha puʻuwai . Inā ālai ʻia nā aʻa e lawe ana i ke koko i ka lolo, e hana ana i ka hahau ʻana , hiki nō hoʻi ke hana i ke koko kiʻekiʻe .Hiki ke hōʻino ʻia nā aʻa. I kekahi manawa hiki i ka paia o ke aʻa ke hoʻonāwaliwali a puʻupuʻu e like me ka pōpō, kahi a mākou e kapa nei he aneurysm . I mea e pale ai i kēia mau mea a pau, pono ʻoe e mālama i kou mau aʻa i ke olakino.

He aha nā aʻa koko? – ʻO nā 'ala hoʻi' mai ke kino a i ka puʻuwai

I kēia manawa, e kamaʻilio kākou e pili ana i nā aʻa koko. Ua like nā aʻa koko me nā 'ala hoʻi' e hōʻiliʻili a lawe i ke koko i nele i ka oxygen, waiwai i ke kalapona ʻokikene mai nā ʻāpana like ʻole o ke kino (koe wale nō hoʻokahi aʻa koko kūikawā) i ka puʻuwai. ʻO kēia nā aʻa koko e nānā polū ana ma lalo o kou ʻili. (ʻAʻole lākou e nānā polū no ka mea he polū ke koko, akā no ke ʻano o ka hele ʻana o ka mālamalama ma o ke koko i nele i ka oxygen a me ka ʻili).

ʻOi aku ka lahilahi o nā paia o nā aʻa koko ma mua o ko nā aʻa koko. ʻO kēia no ka mea ke kahe nei ke koko ma o nā aʻa koko ma ke kaomi haʻahaʻa ma mua o nā aʻa koko. ʻO kekahi o nā mea kūikawā e pili ana i nā aʻa koko , ʻo ia ko lākou mau kiwikā . Ua like kēia me nā puka e wehe wale ana i hoʻokahi ala. Kōkua kēia mau kiwikā i ka pale ʻana i ke koko mai ke kahe ʻana i lalo, ʻoiai i ka wā e pili ana i ke koko e hoʻi ana mai nā wāwae a i ka puʻuwai. Inā ʻaʻole, e hoʻoulu ka umekaumaha i ke kahe ʻana o ke koko a pau i lalo! ʻO nā aʻa koko nui ʻelua e hōʻiliʻili i ke koko mai nā ʻaoʻao o luna a me lalo o ko kākou kino a hoʻihoʻi mai i ka puʻuwai, ʻo ia ka Superior Vena Cava a me ka Inferior Vena Cava . ʻO nā aʻa koko liʻiliʻi e pili ana i kēia mau mea ua kapa ʻia he venule .

Nā pilikia aa

Hiki ke loaʻa kekahi mau pilikia me nā aʻa koko. ʻO kahi mea i kamaʻāina i ka poʻe he nui, ʻo ia nā aʻa koko varicose . Hana ʻia kēia i ka wā e hana pono ʻole ai nā valves i loko o nā aʻa koko, e hoʻoulu ai i ke koko e hui pū a pehu nā aʻa koko, wili, a ʻike ʻia ma luna o ka ʻili. He mea maʻamau kēia ma nā wāwae.

ʻO kekahi kūlana koʻikoʻi paha, ʻo ia ka deep vein thrombosis (DVT) . ʻO kēia ka wā e hana ʻia ai kahi ʻaʻa koko i loko o kahi aʻa koko nui i loko o ke kino. Inā haki kēia ʻaʻa koko a noho i kahi e like me nā māmā, hiki ke hoʻoweliweli i ke ola. Hiki i kekahi poʻe ke loaʻa i nā aʻa koko liʻiliʻi e like me ka nananana e ʻike ʻia ma ka ʻili o ka ʻili. ʻOiai ʻaʻole kēia he pilikia olakino nui, hiki iā lākou ke lilo i mea hoʻonaninani no kekahi.

ʻO ka pilina ma waena o nā aʻa a me nā veins - nā alahaka liʻiliʻi i kapa ʻia ʻo capillaries

ʻAe, i kēia manawa ua ʻike mākou e pili ana i nā aʻa a me nā veins. Akā he aha ka pilina ma waena o kēia mau 'alanui nui' a me nā 'alanui hoʻi'? ʻO ia kahi e komo mai ai nā kīʻaha koko liʻiliʻi a palupalu i kapa ʻia ʻo capillaries . Ua like kēia me nā 'alahele liʻiliʻi' e lālā ana mai nā alanui nui a hele a hiki i nā hale.

He liʻiliʻi loa nā capillaries, ʻoi aku ka lahilahi o kekahi o lākou ma mua o ko kākou lauoho! Akā hana lākou i kahi hana koʻikoʻi loa. Hoʻololi ʻia ka oxygen a me nā meaʻai mai nā aʻa me kēlā me kēia cell i loko o ke kino, a hoʻohui ʻia nā huahana ʻōpala a me ke kalapona dioxide mai nā cell i ke koko, ma o kēia mau capillaries. Ma muli o ka hoʻolaha ʻia ʻana o kēia mau capillaries e like me kahi pūnaewele ma loko o ko kākou kino, hoʻolako ʻia ke koko i kēlā me kēia ʻāpana liʻiliʻi o ke kino. A laila hui pū kēia mau capillaries e hana i nā veins, e lawe ana i ke koko haumia i ka puʻuwai.

No ke aha he mea nui ka mālama ʻana i ke olakino o kēia mau aʻa koko a me nā uaua?

I kēia manawa ua maopopo iā ʻoe ke waiwai o kēia ʻōnaehana o nā 'kīʻaha koko' i kapa ʻia ʻo nā arteries, veins, a me nā capillaries i ko mākou kino. Ke hana pono kēia mau mea hiki i nā ʻōkana āpau i loko o ko mākou kino - ka lolo, ka puʻuwai, nā puʻupaʻa, nā ʻiʻo - ke loaʻa ke kahe koko kūpono a noho olakino.

He mea nui ka mālama ʻana i kēia ʻōnaehana 'aʻa koko' e hana pono ana no ko kākou olakino holoʻokoʻa a no ka mālama ʻana iā kākou mai nā maʻi.

Inā olakino kēia mau mea, e kōkua nō hoʻi lākou i ka pale ʻana iā mākou mai nā maʻi koʻikoʻi e like me nā hōʻeha puʻuwai a me nā hahau, a mākou i kūkākūkā ai ma mua. ʻAʻole wale kēlā, akā he mea nui loa ke kahe koko maikaʻi no mākou e hana pono i kā mākou mau hana o kēlā me kēia lā a noho ikaika.

He aha kā kākou e hana ai e mālama i ke olakino o ko kākou 'mau kīʻaha koko'?

ʻO ka nūhou maikaʻi, he nui nā mea hiki iā kākou ke hana e mālama i ke olakino o kēia mau aʻa koko a me nā uaua makamae. E like me kā kākou lawelawe ʻana i kā kākou mau kaʻa e mālama iā lākou i ke kūlana maikaʻi, pono kākou e mālama i kēia mau 'alanui' i loko o ko kākou kino. No laila he aha kā kākou e hiki ai ke hana?
