What is Homeostasis?
The coordinated physiological process which maintains a steady state of ‘internal constancy’ or ‘mileau interior’ is called Homeostasis.
In other words , ‘internal constancy’ is maintained by various organs of our body like- Brain, Heart, Lungs,Liver, Kidney etc
This internal constancy is a ‘closed loop system’ and is responsible for the independent existence of an individual .
Primary insults like injury or sepsis makes this closed loop system in to an 'open loop.' The aim of medical/surgical intervention is to make this 'open loop' back in to 'closed loop.'
Artificial augmentation of homeostasis is called Resuscitation.
Provision of organ support for homeostasis is called Critical Care.
Could you provide us with cardiology equipment list, used for maintaining homeostasis?
