Cardiac allograft vasculopathy (CAV) is a progressive type of coronary artery disease in people who have had a heart transplant. [1] As the donor heart has lost its nerve supply there is typically no chest pain, and CAV is usually detected on routine testing. [2] It may present with symptoms such as tiredness and breathlessness. [2]
Constant air volume (CAV) is a type of heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning system. In a simple CAV system, the supply air flow rate is constant, but the supply air temperature is varied to meet the thermal loads of a space. [1] Most CAV systems are small, and serve a single thermal zone.
In anatomy, the venae cavae (/ ˈ v iː n i ˈ k eɪ v i /; [1] sg.: vena cava / ˈ v iː n ə ˈ k eɪ v ə /; from Latin 'hollow veins') [2] are two large veins (great vessels) that return deoxygenated blood from the body into the heart.
The inferior vena cava is a large vein that carries the deoxygenated blood from the lower and middle body into the right atrium of the heart.It is formed by the joining of the right and the left common iliac veins, usually at the level of the fifth lumbar vertebra.
The sinoatrial node (also known as the sinuatrial node, SA node or sinus node) is an oval shaped region of special cardiac muscle in the upper back wall of the right atrium made up of cells known as pacemaker cells.
In optical storage, constant angular velocity (CAV) is a qualifier for the rated speed of any disc containing information, and may also be applied to the writing speed of recordable discs. A drive or disc operating in CAV mode maintains a constant angular velocity , contrasted with a constant linear velocity (CLV).
“This is something that’s been going on forever—we’re just becoming aware that the virus can change form to something that’s most advantageous to survive and propagate,” he says.
