Hyperaemia

id: hyperaemia-197-18854931
title: Hyperaemia
text: Hyperaemia is the increase of blood flow to different tissues in the body. It can have medical implications but is also a regulatory response, allowing change in blood supply to different tissues through vasodilation. Clinically, hyperaemia in tissues manifests as erythema because of the engorgement of vessels with oxygenated blood. Hyperaemia can also occur due to a fall in atmospheric pressure outside the body. The term comes from Greek ὑπέρ (hupér) 'over', and αἷμα (haîma) 'blood'.
