How do you control fermoral severed artery?
Simple answer: Apply firm, direct pressure directly above the severed site. It will be extremely painful to the one with the injury. Because the femoral artery is among the larger blood vessels in the body, bleed-out will be quick. As with any arterial bleed, if the bleeding is not quickly controlled, certain death is almost inevitable.
What can cause a peripheral artery disease?
One of the major causes of peripheral arterial disease in the developed world is diabetes mellitus. This condition, if blood glucose levels are not well controlled, is associated with peripheral arterial disease which characteristically effects the kidneys and the retina of the eye. Damage to the micro-circulation occurs as well as disease of the larger vessels. Such processes lead to damage of the peripheral nerves, leading to anaesthesia (total numbness).Elevated serum levels of LDL-Cholesterol are also associated with damage to the peripheral arteries. Other causes include tobacco smoking.One of the most important causes of Peripheral Artery Disease is said to be Atherosclerosis which mainly occurs when the fatty deposits build up in the walls of your artery and as a result could reduce the blood flow in the body. The least common cause of Peripheral Artery Disease is said to be blood clotting in the arteries, injury to the limbs.
The most serious form of heart disease is coronary heart disease?
The coronary arteries supply blood to the heart muscle itself. Damage to or blockage of a coronary artery can result in injury to the heart. Normally, blood flows through a coronary artery unimpeded. However, if the inner wall of a coronary artery becomes damaged, cholesterol plaque can build-up, progressively narrowing the available pathway through which blood can flow.Clotted blood attempting to traverse the blood vessel may find it tortuous and too narrow for passage, and the artery may become completely constricted or blocked-off. The blocked artery results in a lack of oxygen, or ischemia, to the part of the heart muscle that the artery supplies. The result is a heart attack.Reviewed ByReview Date: 05/23/2011Michael A.

The femoral nerve is most at risk of injury in butchers and abattoir workers when they are using knives and cutting tools near the groin area. This is because the femoral nerve runs through the thigh and supplies sensation to the front of the thigh and leg, making it vulnerable to injury during work activities that involve sharp objects near this region.
