| 설명 | 심장 내부의 인공판막. 심장의 판막이 어떤 원인으로 손상되어 판막의 기능이 유지될 수 없을 때 이 판막을 성형해서 다시 사용하거나(판막성형술) 인공판막으로 치환(판막치환술)해 주어야 한다. 인공판막에는 크게 두 가지가 있는데 하나는 돼지나 소 등의 생체조직으로 만든 조직판막이고 다른 하나는 금속재질로 만든 기계판막이다. 이 두 판막은 서로 장단점이 있는데, 조직판막은 수명이 10년 정도로 짧은 단점이 있는 반면에 판막 주위에 혈액응고가 적어 항응고제 복용이 필요 없고, 손상이 서서히 일어난다. |

| 설명 | 관 혹은 통로에 있는 막과 같은 주름. 내용물의 역류를 막는다. 1.심장판막: 우심방과 우심실사이의 삼첨판, 좌심방과 좌심실사이의 승모판, 우심실과 폐동맥사이의 폐동맥반월판, 좌심실과 대동맥사이의 대동맥반월판이 있다. 2.정맥판막: 정맥에서 발견되는 내막의 작은 첨 혹은 주름. 탄력성이 적어 역류되기 쉬운 정맥혈의 흐름을 역류없이 정상적인 방향으로 지속되도록 해준다. 3.인공판막: 심장판막부족이나 심장판막협착이 있어 더이상 자신의 판막으로는 생존이 불가능할 때 대신 이식하게 되는 인공판막을 말한다. 크게 동물의 조직을 이용한 것과 그렇지 않은 것으로 양분할 수 있다. 동물의 조직을 이용한 것은 주로 돼지나 소의 판막 또는 심외막 등을 이용하며, 그렇지 않은 것은 특수한 금속을 이용하여 만든다. |

| gas | Origin: Invented by the chemist Van Helmont of Brussels, who died in 1644. 1. An aeriform fluid; a term used at first by chemists as synonymous with air, but since restricted to fluids supposed to be permanently elastic, as oxygen, hydrogen, etc, in distinction from vapors, as steam, which become liquid on a reduction of temperature. In present usage, since all of the supposed permanent gases have been liquified by cold and pressure, the term has resumed nearly its original signification, and is applied to any substance in the elastic or aeriform state. 2. A complex mixture of gases, of which the most important constituents are marsh gas, olefiant gas, and hydrogen, artificially produced by the destructive distillation of gas coal, or sometimes of peat, wood, oil, resin, etc. It gives a brilliant light when burned, and is the common gas used for illuminating purposes. Laughing gas. Any irrespirable aeriform fluid. Gas is often used adjectively or in combination; as, gas fitter or gasfitter; gas meter or gas-meter, etc. <chemistry> Air gas, a kind of gas made by forcing air through some volatile hydrocarbon, as the lighter petroleums. The air is so saturated with combustible vapor as to be a convenient illuminating and heating agent. <physics> Gas battery, a kind of gas made by forcing steam over glowing coals, whereby there results a mixture of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. This gives a gas of intense heating power, but destitute of light-giving properties, and which is charged by passing through some volatile hydrocarbon, as gasoline.

| gas abscess | An abscess containing gas caused by Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, or other gas-forming microorganisms. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gas bacillus | The most common aetiologic agent of gas gangrene. It is differentiable into several distinct types based on the distribution of twelve different toxins. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gas blanket | <radiobiology> A cold, dense volume of gas surrounding a hot plasma and used to protect a material wall from bombardment by hot ions (and its resultant sputtering and impurity production). (09 Oct 1997) |
| gas cautery | Cautery by means of a measured amount of a lighted gas jet. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gas chromatography | <technique> A chromatographic technique (a type of column chromatography) in which the stationary phase is solid while the mobile phase is gaseous samples. The gaseous samples are separated based on their different adsorption ability to the solid phase. (09 Oct 1997) |
| gas constant | R (symbol for the constant) = 8.314 × 107 ergs per degree Celsius per mole = 8.314 J K-1 mol-1 (joules per kelvin mole). (05 Mar 2000) |
| gas cyst | A cyst with gaseous instead of the ordinary liquid or pultaceous contents. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gas embolism | <physiology> A serious condition that results when air (in the form of bubbles) invades the blood vessels causing disruption of normal blood flow. (06 Aug 1998) |
| gas engine | A piston engine that uses gaseous fuel rather than gasoline. Fuel and air are mixed before they enter cylinders; ignition occurs with a spark. (05 Dec 1998) |
| gas gangrene | <microbiology> A severe form of gangrene (tissue necrosis) caused by Clostridium infection. Also referred to as necrotising subcutaneous infection. Results in death of the subcutaneous tissues and muscle layers. See: necrotising fascitis. (27 Sep 1997) |
| gas gangrene antitoxin | Antitoxin specific for the toxin of one or more species of Clostridium that cause gaseous gangrene and associated toxaemia, especially C. Perfringens C. Novyi, C. Histolyticum, and commercially available preparations are usually polyvalent, i.e., contain antitoxin for two or more species. Synonym: pentavalent gas gangrene antitoxin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gas, intestinal | The complaint referred to as intestinal gas is a common one and the discomfort can be quite significant. Everyone has gas and eliminates it by burping or passing it through the rectum. In many instances people think they have too much gas when in reality they have normal amounts. most people produce 1 to 3 pints of intestinal gas in 24 hours and pass gas an average of 14 times a day. It is made up primarily of odourless vapors such as carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and in some families, methane. The unpleasant odour is due to bacteria in the large intestine that release small amounts of gases containing sulfur. (12 Dec 1998) |
| gas-liquid chromatography | <technique> A chemistry lab technique, a type of column chromatography, used to separate the components of a mixed substance. The substance is held stationary by an inert solid coated with an inert liquid which is not likely to evaporate (i.e. Is nonvolatile), while a gas (called an eluant) flows past it bringing out the components one at a time.

| gas peritonitis | Inflammation of the peritoneum accompanied by an intraperitoneal accumulation of gas. (05 Mar 2000) |
