perfusion - answertissue
premature death in living cells - answernecorsis
What are some diagnostic labs for perfusion - answerCRP: produced by the liver which
is linked to CAD, CK-MB: elevated after an MI; LDH, ANP, BNP, troponin, Hcy

signs: tacky and hypotensive; heart murmur; change in mentation, SOB and altered
EKG
What are some clinical manifestations for tissue perfusion impairment - answerIs
dependent on the tissue involved: LE: less hair, pale, cool skin, no pulses, slow cap
