68-year-old man who collapsed while mowing lawn History: Roger Crocket, a 68-year-old man with a 40-pack-year smoking history and recent complaints of angina upon exercising, collapsed while mowing his lawn. Paramedics arriving at the scene found him unconscious, not breathing, and without a pulse. CPR was successfully performed and Roger was transported to the hospital. An ECG was suggestive of an anterior wall myocardial infarction, and he was given an intravenous solution of tissue plasminogen activator (TPA). Elevated blood creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels measured over the next 2 days confirmed the diagnosis. Coronary angiography was performed a week later, revealing the following results:

Circumflex artery: 20% blocked

Right coronary artery 15% blocked

Left anterior descending artery (LAD): 95% blocked

5) Roger is stabalized and ultimately discharged from the hospital. Three months after the heart attack, he comes back to his physician for a checkup. He complains of dyspnea ("shortness of breath") at rest and difficulty breathing while lying down ("orthopnea"). Hesays he can only sleep when he is propped up by two large pillows. Why is he having these symptoms? What is the general name for Roger's condition?

d. they smooth out the walls of the arteries to preventturbulent blood flow

3. Which of the following are functions of the lymphatic system?(there may be more than one answer)

Select one or more:

a. help fight infections and cancer
