Fosphenytoin Description. Fosphenytoin Sodium Injection, USP is a prodrug intended for parenteral administration; its active metabolite is phenytoin. 1.5 mg of Fosphenytoin sodium is equivalent to 1 mg phenytoin sodium, and is referred to as 1 mg phenytoin sodium equivalents (PE).
The blood vessels may form scar tissue, which can pull on the retina causing a retinal detachment. A fluorescein angiogram is used to evaluate the retinal blood flow. Laser treatment is performed on those patients who develop neovascularization.
Although we don't often view them in this context, blood vessels are subject to mechanical stress during the pumping of blood. Thus, blood vessels must have mechanical properties that can withstand these stresses. Again, the mechanical properties of blood vessels are a function of the underlying tissue structure.Since blood vessels are soft collagenous tissues (with a good deal of elastin, another biomolecule), their stress-strain behavior resembles that of other soft collagenous tissues like ligaments and tendons.n general the circulatory system of blood vessels may be broken down into those vessels that deliver oxygenated blood to tissues: the arteries, arterioles, and capillaries, and those vessels that return blood with carbon dioxide for gas exchange: the veins and venules.
