It depends upon the type of disease.... generally for cardiac diseases, the most frequent treatments involve medications for blood pressure....  if someone has previously suffered a heart attack, a bypass and grafting are often done...  a pacemaker may be installe dto regualte heart rate and to ease the stress put on the myocardial tissues...\n\nthere are a multitude of respitory (lung) diseases as well... most common of course being asthma... but for any ailment affecting the lungs a common treatment is an inhaled medication that opens up the small vessels within the brochials... albuterol and combivent are common meds for such... a nebulizer may be used instead of an inhaler which acts in much the same fasion but adds a bit of moisture...\n\nto best answer you question however i would suggest that you refine your question to specific cardiovascular diseases

General exercise such as running and aerobics increase lung volume.\nPractice will also dramatically improve how long you can hold your breath.

The two organs of the circlatory system are the heart and lungs.  Does that help?

I have non small cell lung cancer - had surgery in Nov 05, just heard about cottage cheese and flaxseed oil and sent away for it.  As soon as it arrives I will be starting the regime.  I do not know anyone at this time with small cell lung cancer.

I have heard of people living off of one lung, but your best bet would be to talk to the doctor at the hospital. He/She im sure would be more then glad to tell you everything you need to know... Hope he gets well soon!

Give a demonstration of a lung.  Go to the grocery store and by a bunch of grapes on a stem.  Put the bunch in a plastic bag keeping the big main stem extended thru the bag.  You have made a lung once you seal the top of the bag.  grapes are the air sacs, branches the different sized bronchial tubes and the big one can be you trachea.  Good luck.

Oxygen to carbon dioxide (breathing), food to energy, sleep to rejuvenation, or maybe that last one wasn't so good, try brain activity (thoughts) to actions (automatic brain commands that keep your heart and lungs functioning)

General weight loss and chest exercises...or surgery :D

Lung\nFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\n\nThe lungs flank the heart and great vessels in the chest cavity. (Source: Gray's Anatomy of the Human Body, 20th ed. 1918.)\n\nThe lungs flank the heart and great vessels in the chest cavity. (Source: Gray's Anatomy of the Human Body, 20th ed. 1918.)\nAir enters and leaves the lungs via a conduit of cartilaginuous passageways — the bronchi and bronchioles. In this image, lung tissue has been dissected away to reveal the bronchioles.

In this image, lung tissue has been dissected away to reveal the bronchioles. (Source: Gray's Anatomy of the Human Body, 20th ed. 1918.)\n\nThe lung is the essential organ of respiration in air-breathing vertebrates. Its principal function is to transport oxygen from the atmosphere into the bloodstream, and to excrete carbon dioxide from the bloodstream into the atmosphere. This it accomplishes with the mosaic of specialized cells that form millions of tiny, exceptionally thin-walled air sacs where gas exchange takes place. Lungs also have nonrespiratory functions.\n\nMedical terms related to the lung often begin with pulmo-, from the Latin pulmonarius ("of the lungs"), cognate with the Greek pleumon ("lung").\n\nRespiratory function\n\nEnergy production from aerobic respiration often requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide as a by-product, creating a need for an efficient means of oxygen delivery to cells and carbon dioxide excretion from cells. In smaller organisms, such as single-celled bacteria, this process of gas exchange can take place entirely by simple diffusion. In larger organisms, this is not possible; only a small proportion of cells are close enough to the surface for oxygen from the atmosphere to enter them through diffusion. Two major adaptations made it possible for organisms to attain great multicellularity: an efficient circulatory system that conveyed gases to and from the deepest tissues in the body, and a large, internalised respiratory system that centralized the task of obtaining oxygen from the atmosphere and bringing it into the body, whence it could rapidly be distributed to all tissues via the circulatory system.\n\nIn air-breathing vertebrates, respiration occurs in a series of steps. Air is brought into the animal via the airways — in reptiles, birds and mammals this often consists of the nose; the pharynx; the larynx; the trachea; the bronchi and bronchioles; and the terminal branches of the respiratory tree. The lungs of mammals are a rich lattice of alveoli, which provide an enormous surface area for gas exchange. A network of fine capillaries allows transport of blood over the surface of alveoli. Oxygen from the air inside the alveoli diffuses into the bloodstream, and carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood to the alveoli, both across thin alveolar membranes. The drawing and expulsion of air is driven by muscular action; in early tetrapods, air was driven into the lungs by the pharyngeal muscles, whereas in reptiles, birds and mammals a more complicated musculoskeletal system is used. In the mammal, a large muscle, the diaphragm (in addition to the internal intercostal muscles), drive ventilation by periodically altering the intra-thoracic volume and pressure; by increasing volume and thus decreasing pressure, air flows into the airways down a pressure gradient, and by reducing volume and increasing pressure, the reverse occurs. During normal breathing, expiration is passive and no muscles are contracted.. [\n\nNonrespiratory functions\n\nIn addition to respiratory functions such as gas exchange and regulation of hydrogen ion concentration, the lungs also:\n\n    * influence the concentration of biologically active substances and drugs used in medicine in arterial blood\n    * filter out small blood clots fo

why don't you ask your teacher? I find it very disturbing that the person that drew my blood the other day may have been taught how to do it by someone on yahoo. Gee whats next a Dr. asking the best way to perform a heart transplant.

Drink plenty of water and don't smoke cigarettes (the worst for blood flow)or drink alcohol. Also Aerobic exercise will make your lungs better able to get oxygen into the bloodstream.

Alot of bad side effects. Quit now and your lungs will start to repair themselves.  I hate I missed your earlier question, but 16 drops = 1 cc/ml.,  5ml = 1tsp,             15 ml = 1 TBS... Nurse Stay RN, BSN

oxygen molecule in lungs diffuses into the blood stream return to the heart via the pulmonary vein (the only vein to carry oxygenated blood) into the left atrium, left ventricle, through the aortic semilunar valve, through the ascending aorta, arch of the aorta, descending aorta, common illiac artery, external illiac artery, femoral artery... from there it  depends where in the hind leg... by the way these are human names, I don't know how many would be different for animals... my comparative anatomy teacher used to make us do these kinds of questions all the time ;-)

*gasp* thanks for your details.  you are the first one I encountered to give his case with good details.\ndon't worry mister. 120/94 AIN'T that alarming. \nquestion: have you eaten any foods high in (bad) cholesterol?? fatty pork chops?? seafoods?? chicken skin?? JUST BEFORE THE PHYSICAL EXAMINATION??\n\nthat is all I can say viewing that your "latest check-up" is PAST 1 YEAR.  I think you should do it again, this time.\n\nTIP: GO SEE DOC.  AVOID FATTY FOODS BEFORE EXAMINATION. THAT BE IT. \n\nJOMAR S.T. NDGM '96\nEDIT: i saw your addition of details today.  you are not suffering from hypertension. you are just within the normal limits, however, that chest should be checked for further data.  might be just stress or rib cage "deflation/inflation" after hours of steadiness.

Most likely is gas, problems with the heart are pressure in the chest not pain, I would take him to a doctor as soon as possible just to make sure he's fine..☺

i don't know them all...but i'll try out some! =D\n1.tissue\n2. red blood cells [not sure though, sorry]\n3. blood plasma\n7.white blood cells\n8.platelets\n9.1%\n10.haemoglobin\n\ni recalled these from what i studied before....hope they're not too far off!! =D i tried!! =D
