Guest guest Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Here is a good explanation of some of the changes in skin that are precursors to CML and what they mean. Bleeding under the skin can occur from broken blood vessels that form tiny pinpoint red dots (called petechiae). Blood also can collect under the tissue in larger flat areas (called purpura), or in a very large bruised area (called an ecchymosis). Ecchymoses; Skin spots - red; Pinpoint red spots on the skin; Petechiae Considerations: Aside from the common bruise, bleeding into the skin or mucous membranes is a very significant sign and should always be checked out. Redness of the skin (erythema) should not be mistaken for bleeding. Petechiae, purpura, and ecchymosis do not become pale (blanch) with pressure. The redness of erythema decreases and then returns when you apply and then release pressure to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 I think the most BV has smooth muscle is arteriole According to Vander it mentioned artery has thick wall of elastic tissue although they have also smooth muscle.. Page 414 Vander Arteriole has sooth muscle and the pattern of blood flow distribution depends upon the degree of arteriolar smooth muscle contraction within each organ ,,page 419 Vander Looking forward for ur thoughtsBalsamSent from my iPadOn 6 Feb 2012, at 14:34, Areej Abbas <areej.aldura@...> wrote: the arteries1 the veins 2 From: Balsam_Majid <balsam_majid@...>" " < > Sent: Monday, 6 February 2012, 10:04Subject: Blood vessels Ore question 1- What blood vessels have the most amount of smooth muscles?2- what blood vessels are the capacitance and hold most of blood volume?
