| compression retinopathy | See: Berlin's oedema. See: traumatic retinopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| compression syndrome | Trauma and ischemia of soft tissues, principally skeletal muscle, due to prolonged severe crushing of the tissues, leading to increased permeability of the cell membrane and to the release of potassium, enzymes, and myoglobin from within cells. Ischemic renal dysfunction secondary to hypotension and diminished renal perfusion results in acute tubular necrosis and uraemia. (12 Dec 1998) |
| compression thrombosis | Thrombosis due to arrest of the circulation in a vessel by compression, as from a tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| compression wave | <radiobiology> Waves where the quantity which oscillates is the density of the medium, that is the medium at a given point alternately compresses and expands. Low-amplitude compression waves in air or water are commonly known as sound waves, shock waves are a high-amplitude form. Synonym: density wave. (13 Jan 1998) |
| heat of compression | Heat produced when a gas is compressed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spinal cord compression | A condition in which pressure is exerted on the spinal cord, as by a tumour, spinal fracture, etc. Its manifestations, which vary with location and degree of pressure, may include pain, paresthesias, and sensory and motor disturbances. (12 Dec 1998) |
| eyeball compression reflex | Slowing of the heart rate due to the vagal effects of compressing an eyeball. Synonym: eyeball compression reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palmar carpal branch of ulnar artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the ulnar artery that supplies the carpal joints and communicates with the anterior carpal branch of the radial artery. Synonym: ramus carpalis palmaris arteriae ulnaris, ramus carpeus palmaris arteriae ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| recurrent ulnar artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, ulnar artery; distribution, two branches, anterior and posterior, pass medially in front of and behind the elbow joint; anastomoses, superior and inferior ulnar collateral, i.e., with articular vascular network of elbow. Synonym: arteria recurrens ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior branch of recurrent ulnar artery | <anatomy, artery> Contributes to blood supply of flexor carpi ulnaris and to articular network of elbow. Synonym: ramus posterior arteriae recurrentis ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior ulnar collateral artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, brachial; distribution, elbow joint; anastomoses, posterior ulnar recurrent and inferior ulnar collateral, as part of the articular vascular network of the elbow. Synonym: arteria collateralis ulnaris superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep palmar branch of ulnar artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of the ulnar artery which supplies the hypothenar muscles then passes deep into the palm to the flexor tendons and anastomoses with the deep palmar arch from the radial artery. Synonym: ramus palmaris profundus arteriae ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dorsal carpal branch of ulnar artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the ulnar artery that passes to the dorsal side of the carpus to enter the dorsal carpal network. Synonym: ramus carpeus dorsalis arteriae ulnaris, ramus carpalis dorsalis arteriae ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior ulnar collateral artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, brachial; distribution, arm muscles at back of elbow; anastomoses, anterior and posterior ulnar recurrent, superior ulnar collateral, profunda brachii, and recurrent interosseous, as part of the articular network of the elbow. Synonym: arteria collateralis ulnaris inferior, arteria anastomotica magna, great anastomotic artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
