Venous
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to a vein or veins; as, the venous circulation of the blood.
(a.) Contained in the veins, or having the same qualities as if contained in the veins, that is, having a dark bluish color and containing an insufficient amount of oxygen so as no longer to be fit for oxygenating the tissues; -- said of the blood, and opposed to arterial.
(a.) Marked with veins; veined; as, a venous leaf.
Example Sentences:
(1) This should not be a serious limitation to the application of the RIA in the detection of venous thrombosis.
(2) Graft life is even more prolonged with patch angioplasty at venous outflow stenoses or by adding a new segment of PTFE to bypass areas of venous stenosis.

(4) Plasmin-alpha 2-antiplasmin complex was not detected in any of the subjects after venous occlusion.
(5) At present it may be concluded that ORT per se does not place the postmenopausal women at greater risk from developing arterio-venous thrombosis.
(6) These results indicate that during IPPV the increased Pcv attenuates the pressure gradient for venous return and decreases CO and that the compensatory increase in Psf is caused by a blood shift from unstressed to stressed blood volume.
(7) Patients with inflammatory bowel disease showed decreased tissue-type plasminogen activator antigen release (t-PA Ag), no significant Von Willebrand antigen release (vWF Ag), and a residual plasminogen activator inhibitor activity (PAI activity) after venous occlusion.
