Pulmonary Valve
|
D011664 |
[A valve situated at the entrance to the pulmonary trunk from the right ventricle.
] |
|
Pulmonary Valve Insufficiency
|
D011665 |
[Backflow of blood from the PULMONARY ARTERY into the RIGHT VENTRICLE due to imperfect closure of the PULMONARY VALVE.
] |
|
Pulmonary Valve Stenosis
|
D011666 |
[The pathologic narrowing of the orifice of the PULMONARY VALVE. This lesion restricts blood outflow from the RIGHT VENTRICLE to the PULMONARY ARTERY. When the trileaflet valve is fused into an imperforate membrane, the blockage is complete.
] |
|
Pulmonary Veins
|
D011667 |
[The veins that return the oxygenated blood from the lungs to the left atrium of the heart.
] |
|
Pulmonary Veno-Occlusive Disease
|
D011668 |
[Pathological process resulting in the fibrous obstruction of the small- and medium-sized PULMONARY VEINS and PULMONARY HYPERTENSION. Veno-occlusion can arise from fibrous proliferation of the VASCULAR INTIMA and VASCULAR MEDIA; THROMBOSIS; or a combination of both.

|
Pulmonary Ventilation
|
D012123 |
[The total volume of gas inspired or expired per unit of time, usually measured in liters per minute.
] |
|
Pulmonary Wedge Pressure
|
D011669 |
[The blood pressure as recorded after wedging a CATHETER in a small PULMONARY ARTERY; believed to reflect the PRESSURE in the pulmonary CAPILLARIES.
] |
|
Pulmonologists
|
D000072106 |
[Physicians who specialize in treating disorders of the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM, especially diagnosing and treating diseases and defects of the lungs and bronchial tree.
] |
|
Pulp Capping and Pulpectomy Agents
|
D057872 |
[Materials used in DENTAL PULP CAPPING or PULPECTOMY.
] |
|
Pulpectomy
|
D011670 |
[Dental procedure in which the entire pulp chamber is removed from the crown and roots of a tooth.
] |
|
Pulpitis
|
D011671 |
[Inflammation of the DENTAL PULP, usually due to bacterial infection in dental caries, tooth fracture, or other conditions causing exposure of the pulp to bacterial invasion. Chemical irritants, thermal factors, hyperemic changes, and other factors may also cause pulpitis.
] |
|
Pulpotomy
|
D011672 |
[Dental procedure in which part of the pulp chamber is removed from the crown of a tooth.
] |
|
Pulsatile Flow
|
D011673 |
[Rhythmic, intermittent propagation of a fluid through a BLOOD VESSEL or piping system, in contrast to constant, smooth propagation, which produces laminar flow.
] |
|
Pulsatilla
|
D031946 |
[A plant genus of the family RANUNCULACEAE. Members contain cernuosides and other oleanane and hederagenin saponins.
] |
|
Pulse
|
D011674 |
[The rhythmical expansion and contraction of an ARTERY produced by waves of pressure caused by the ejection of BLOOD from the left ventricle of the HEART as it contracts.
] |
|
Pulse Radiolysis
|
D011675 |
[Use of a pulse of X-rays or fast electrons to generate free radicals for spectroscopic examination.
] |
|
Pulse Therapy, Drug
|
D020551 |
[Administration of high doses of pharmaceuticals over short periods of time.
] |
|
Pulse Wave Analysis
|
D063177 |
[Evaluation of the contour of the PULSE waves which vary in different parts of the circulation and depend on physiological as well as pathophysiological conditions of the individual.
, The transit time of an AORTIC PRESSURE wave between two places along the ARTERIES. It is determined in part by the degree of ARTERIAL STIFFNESS.
] |
|
Pulsed Radiofrequency Treatment
|
D061208 |
[The application, often via IMPLANTED ELECTRODES, of short bursts of electrical energy in the radiofrequency range, interspersed with pauses in delivery of the current long enough to dissipate the generated heat and avoid heat-induced tissue necrosis.
] |
|
Pulvinar
|
D020649 |
[Large mass of nuclei forming the most caudal portion of the THALAMUS and overhanging the GENICULATE BODIES and the dorsolateral surface of the MIDBRAIN. It is divided into four parts: the lateral, medial, inferior, and oral pulvinar nuclei.
