Welcome!

Welcome to this informational website, all about the cardiovascular system. The cardiovascular system is one of the 11 organ systems in the human body. This system transports materials througout the body via blood pumped by the heart, including oxygen, carbon dioxide, nutrients, and waste.

Here, you can gain knowledge about many aspects of the cardiovascular system, including the anatomy and physiology of it, in addition to information about blood vessels and blood pressure. Common homeostatic imbalances are also included, with reasons as to why they occur.

Interesting statistics and facts are included as well, about heart disease, heart attacks, and more.

If you would like to gain even more knowledge about the heart, or you would like to contribute somehow, information about helpful organizations/resources are available, such as the renowned American Heart Association.

Comment boxes are also available if you should have any questions regarding any of the information presented, or anything having to do with the circulatory system.

Enjoy. :)
