| 영문 | blood gas | 한글 | 혈액가스, 혈액기체 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액 속에 용해되어 있는 산소, 이산화탄소, 질소 따위의 기체. 혈액의 산성-염기성의 정도를 측정할 수 있다. |

| 영문 | blood test | 한글 | 혈액검사 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액형이나 질병 유무 따위를 알기 위하여 피를 뽑아 행하는 검사. 몸 전체의 장기나 조직에 병터가 있으면 이들 성분에 변화가 있게 되어 진단에 큰 도움을 준다. |

| 영문 | blood-brain barrier | 한글 | 혈액뇌장벽 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 혈액으로부터 뇌로는 지질용해성이 높은 약물밖에 이행되지 않는다. 수용성의 약물을 뇌로 이행되지 않게 하고 있는 것이 혈액뇌장벽이며 뇌의 모세혈관 내피세포, 모세혈관 주위의 세포가 장벽이 되고 있다. 물질교환은 수동확산에 의해 이루어지지만, 뇌의 생리적 활동에 필요한 물질은 이온형이라도 담체를 통해 이행된다. |

| 영문 | blood volume | 한글 | 혈액량 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 체내에 존재하는 혈액의 총량으로서, 보통 리터 또는 체중 1kg에 대하여 리터수로 표시한다. |
||
| 영문 | blood urea nitrogen | 한글 | 혈액요소질소 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 요소는 아미노산의 탈아미노에 의해 생긴 암노니아와 탄산가스로부터 간에서 합성된다. 혈중에서는 혈장과 혈구의 물성분 안에 함유되어 있다. 혈액요소질소는 콩팥토리에서 여과되며 일부 요세관에서 재흡수되고, 나머지가 오줌중에 배설된다. 따라서 혈액요소질소는 콩팥기능의 저하에 따라 증가되지만, 식사단백질 섭취량, 조직붕괴, 위장관 출혈 등과 탈수 등 순환혈액량의 이상으로 변동된다. |

| surgical equipment | Nonexpendable apparatus used during surgical procedures. They are differentiated from surgical instruments, usually hand-held and used in the immediate operative field. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| surgical erysipelas | Erysipelas caused by infection of the wound following a surgical procedure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| surgical flaps | Tongues of tissue (skin and subcutaneous tissue, sometimes including muscle) cut away from the underlying parts but attached at one end. They retain their own blood supply during transfer to the new site. They are used in plastic surgery for filling a defect in a neighboring region. The concept includes pedicled flaps, rotation flaps, tube flaps, etc. (12 Dec 1998) |
| surgical instruments | Hand-held tools or implements used by health professionals for the performance of surgical tasks. (12 Dec 1998) |
| surgical ligation | In dentistry, the surgical exposure of an unerupted tooth so that a metal ligature can be placed around its cervix and fastened to an orthodontic appliance to facilitate eruption. (05 Mar 2000) |
| surgical maggot | A sterilised botfly maggot used in an obsolete therapy of wound debridement and removal of abscessed tissues. (05 Mar 2000) |
| surgical mesh | Any woven or knit material of open texture used in surgery for the repair, reconstruction, or substitution of tissue. The mesh is usually a synthetic fabric made of various polymers. It is occasionally made of metal. (12 Dec 1998) |
| surgical microscope | <instrument> A binocular microscope used to obtain good visualization of fine structures in the operating field; in the standing type of microscope, a motorised zoom lens system operated by hand or foot controls provides an adjustable working distance; in headborne models, interchangeable oculars provide the magnification needed. Synonym: operating microscope. (05 Mar 2000) |
| surgical neck of humerus | The narrow portion below the head and tuberosities. Synonym: collum chirurgicum humeri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| surgical oncology | <study> The study of cancer using surgery, usually to remove cancerous tumours and tissue. (16 Dec 1997) |
| surgical pathology | A field in anatomical pathology concerned with examination of tissues removed from living patients for the purpose of diagnosis of disease and guidance in the care of patients. (05 Mar 2000) |
| surgical procedures, elective | Surgery which could be postponed or not done at all without danger to the patient. Elective surgery includes procedures to correct non-life-threatening medical problems as well as to alleviate conditions causing psychological stress or other potential risk to patients, e.g., cosmetic or contraceptive surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| surgical procedures, endoscopic | Surgery performed with the use of an endoscope. Operative techniques may include use of lasers or electrocautery. The procedure is guided via visualization using fibre optics, video and other remote transmission. Advantages are briefer anaesthesia and operative periods, reduced recovery time, shorter hospitalization, and generally less trauma for the patient. (12 Dec 1998) |
| surgical procedures, laparoscopic | Surgery performed with the use of a laparoscope. (12 Dec 1998) |
| surgical procedures, minimally invasive | Procedures that avoid use of open invasive surgery in favour of closed or local surgery. These generally involve use of laparoscopic devices and remote-control manipulation of instruments with indirect observation of the surgical field through an endoscope or similar device. With the reduced trauma associated with minimally invasive surgery, long hospital stays may be reduced with increased rates of short stay or day surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
