215Anatomy and physiologyTo provide adequate medical care on board ship there is noneed to have a detailed knowledge of anatomy (structure ofthe body) or of physiology (function of bodily systems).Nevertheless the information provided in this Annex couldbe useful when examining a patient or obtaining and actingon radio medical advice.The principal bones of the skeleton and the main musclesof the body are illustrated in Figures I.1 and I.2. The positionof the organs in the chest and abdomen is depicted in Plates 14and 15.The bone structureThe skeleton, which consists of bones and cartilages, providesa rigid framework. The separate bones and cartilages are heldtogether firmly at the joints by strong bands of connectivetissue (the ligaments). Each bone is enveloped in a very toughadherent sheath of fibrous tissue. Between the sheath andthe bone surface is a layer of bone-forming cells which canproduce new bone in the event of a fracture.The shaft of a typical long bone has a thick wall of densebone which forms a hollow cylinder enclosing a central canalcontaining bone marrow. At each end the shaft is expandedto make the joint surface. These surfaces are covered by asmooth layer of cartilage to permit movements withoutcausing friction.ANNEX IAnatomy and physiologyBone structureVoluntary musclesInvoluntary musclesCirculatory systemBreathing systemDigestive systemUrinary systemWITHDRAWNPUBLICATIONVoluntary musclesThese form the bulk of the fleshy parts of the body. They arefixed to the bones by blending with the sheaths of fibroustissue surrounding the bones. Some are attached directly to awide area of bone surface but others taper to form a strongcord (tendon or leader) which is attached at a specific placeon a bone. Muscles, and especially those of the limbs, arearranged in two opposing groups. Contraction of one groupin response to an impulse through the nerve supply must beaccompanied by simultaneous relaxation of the opposinggroup, or movement will not take place. These movementsare under conscious control.Involuntary musclesThese are found in the stomach and intestines, in the heartand blood vessels, and also in other internal organs of thebody. They continue to work throughout life as part ofnatural body function outside the control of personal will.Nervous systemSkinANNEX IIAnatomical drawingsThe skeletonMain voluntary musclesOrgans of chest andabdomenAnatomy and physiology – Anatomical drawingsANNEXESANNEX I

216THE SHIP CAPTAIN’S MEDICAL GUIDECirculatory systemLegsBloodArmsThe body contains about 5 litres of blood which consistsbasically of four constituents: plasma; red cells; whitecells; and platelet cells.The plasma is the liquid component of the bloodwhich circulates to all the tissue cells throughout thebody. It distributes food, water, salts and heat andcollects waste products which are subsequently excreted.The red cells predominate and give the blood itscolour. This colour is derived from a complex ironcompound (haemoglobin) which is the main oxygencarrier.The white cells give protection against infection byattacking and killing bacteria and also by producingsubstances which are necessary for building up resistanceto further infections.The main purpose of platelets is to assist in the bloodclotting ntestinesTrunkThe heart and blood vesselsThe heart is a thick-walled muscular pump about the sizeof a clenched fist. It is divided in the mid line into two sideswhich do not communicate. Each side has an upper andlower chamber which communicate through a main heartvalve. The separate chambers are each served by a majorblood vessel that either brings blood to the chamber orcarries it away. See Plate 15.The right side receives venous blood which, havingbeen circulated around the body, has given up its oxygenand collected carbon dioxide. This blood is pumpedthrough the lungs where it is replenished with oxygenand discards the carbon dioxide. As purified blood, itreturns to the left side to be pumped through thearteries to all parts of the body.The blood vessels form a closed system of tubes. Thearteries, which have to take the full force of the pumpingpressure, have thick walls containing muscle fibres andelastic tissue. Each heart beat widens the bore of thearteries to accommodate the surge of blood. Betweenbeats the bore is returned to normal by the action of themuscle fibres and elastic tissue. Where an artery runsclose to the body surface, the changing pressures can befelt as a pulse.The arteries penetrate to all parts of the body,dividing and sub-dividing until they narrow to form verythin-walled vessels (capillaries). The capillaries then joinwith the venous network which returns the blood to theheart (Figure I.2). The size of veins increases until theheart is reached.The capillary system is vital to the life of all tissues. Thethin capillary vessel wall allows nutrients, oxygen, heatand beneficial chemical substance to enter the cells and,most important, waste products to be passed out into theblood.LegsFigure I.1 The heart and the variouscirculations, diagrammaticArteryCapillarynetworkVeinFigure I.2 Capillaries

At its lowerend the windpipe divides into two main tubes called bronchi (Figure I.3).The main air passage in each lung (the bronchus) divides into successively smaller brancheswhich carry inhaled air to all parts of the lung. Each small branch terminates by forming acluster of very tiny air sacs (the alveoli). A fine network of blood vessels covers the surface ofevery air sac thereby permitting gas exchange by diffusion. Oxygen from the inspired airpasses through the thin tissues to combine with the haemoglobin of the red blood cells.Waste gases, mainly carbon-dioxide, pass from blood into the air sacs and are expelled onbreathing out.Haemoglobin Oxygen Oxyhaemoglobin(purple red colour)(bright red colour of normal blood)Whenever the blood is insufficiently oxygenated, as in pneumonia, the purple red hue of theblood shows as a blue tinge of the lips.Each lung is covered by a lubricated lining called the pleura. The inner side of the chest wallis also covered by a similar lining. These two layers of pleura are in contact and slide smoothlyover one another during breathing.The act of breathing is mainly due to the diaphragm moving up and down. The diaphragmis a large dome-shaped muscle which separates the chest from the abdominal cavity. Whenthe diaphragm muscle contracts, its dome becomes flattened and draws down the lungs,causing air to enter them; when it relaxes the lungs become smaller and the air in them isexpelled. The muscles of the abdomen also help in breathing. When they tighten up, theypress the abdominal contents up against the diaphragm and help in expelling air from thelungs; when they relax, they assist the diaphragm in drawing down the lungs as breathing intakes place.The normal rate of breathing at rest is 16–18 times a minute. This rate increasesconsiderably with exertion and also with certain diseases, especially those affecting the heartand lungs.217

218THE SHIP CAPTAIN’S MEDICAL GUIDEDigestive systemThe abdomen is a cavity shut off from the chest by the diaphragm. The cavity is lined by a sheathof membrane (the peritoneum) which also enfolds some of the abdominal organs. The sheathsecretes fluid which keeps the abdominal contents moist and prevents friction.The digestive tractThis is a passage consisting of the gullet (oesophagus), the stomach, the small intestine, thelarge intestine, the rectum and the anus.The gullet is a straight muscular tube which joins the throat to the stomach. It passes downthrough the back of the chest cavity and goes through an opening in the diaphragm to connectwith the upper part of the stomach.The stomach is a J shaped pouch. It enlarges when food or liquid is consumed. The lower partof the stomach is narrow where it joins with the first part (duodenum) of the small intestine.The small intestine is a narrow-bore coiled tube, roughly 7.5 metres long, which occupiesmost of the central part of the abdominal cavity. The internal surface of the wall bears a largenumber of very small folds which project inwards to increase the surface area in contact withthe contents of the intestine. The small intestine joins with the large intestine in the right lowerquarter of the abdomen.The large intestine is a wide-bore tube, roughly 1.5 metres long, which arches upwards andacross the abdominal cavity before descending the left side to join with the rectum.The rectum is roughly 150 mm long and is continuous at its lower end with the very short analcanal which opens to the exterior.WITHDRAWNPUBLICATIONThe digestive processDigestion is the physical and chemical breakdown of food into useful products which are thenabsorbed by the capillaries of the blood vessels serving the gut. The unwanted residue of foodis excreted as faeces.The digestive tract walls contain involuntary muscle which by contractions moves thecontents through the entire length until they reach the rectum where they are stored as faecesprior to evacuation. At certain places such as the entrance and exit to the stomach and at theanus, circular bands of muscle capable of constriction (sphincters) act as valves to shut off theflow.The physical breakdown of food is accomplished by chewing, by the churning actions of thegut and by the addition of special digestive juices to the food. This begins in the mouth whenfood is mixed with saliva which contains enzymes. In the stomach, acid gastric juice is secretedby the stomach walls and acts on the food which may be retained there for several hours beforepassing through the duodenum. Small ducts from the bile system of the liver and also from thepancreas open into the duodenum. These ducts provide juices which are partly designed toneutralise the acid from the stomach juice and thus allow the enzymes secreted by theduodenal walls to act more efficiently. The churning of the gut then ensures a thorough mixingof food and digestive juices throughout the length of the small intestine where most of thechemical breakdown takes place. The main functions of the large intestine are to re-absorbwater from the food residue and to reduce the bulk of the faeces.The liverThe abdominal veins drain into the liver and carry to it the useful products which have beenabsorbed during the digestive process. One of the main liver functions is to act as a chemicalfactory which processes these products into substances necessary for nutrition.

Annex I ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGYUrinary systemThe kidneys are located at the back of the upper part of the abdominal cavity, one on each sideof the spine (see Plate 14). They are embedded in fat to cushion them from injury.The main kidney function is to remove water and certain harmful waste products from theblood and, by this filtering process, to form urine. They control total body water and theconcentration of various chemical substances in the blood. The kidneys also play an importantpart in maintaining a steady level of blood pressure.The urine is carried downward from the kidneys to the urinary bladder by tubes of smallcalibre (the ureters); one tube for each kidney. The urinary bladder is a muscular bag situated inthe front part of the cavity formed by the pelvic bones. The bladder acts as a reservoir whereurine collects until it is expelled by voluntary muscular contractions through a tube (theurethra) which leaves from the bladder base.The male urethra measures 18 to 20 cm from the bladder to the external opening at the endof the penis. A knowledge of this length is important when passing a catheter. The femaleurethra is much shorter, being about 4 cm in length. It runs embedded in the upper vaginal wallto the external opening just above the vaginal orifice.Nervous systemWITHDRAWNPUBLICATIONCerebro-spinal nervous systemThis consists of the brain, spinal cord and the associated nerves. The brain is in the cavity of theskull. It is the co-ordinating centre for the nervous system, processing incoming informationfrom nerves concerned with sight, smell, taste, hearing, sensation etc. and controlling variousparts of the body, particularly muscles by way of out going (motor nerves). Higher functionsinclude intellect, memory, personality etc.The spinal cord emerges from the base of the brain and leaves the skull into the bonyvertebral canal. It is protected by vertebrae throughout its length, and nerves emerge atregular intervals. These nerves control muscles and transmit sensation back through the spinalcolumn to the brain.Sympathetic nervous systemThis is a fine network of nerves not under direct voluntary control influencing the function ofvarious organs, especially gut, bladder, blood vessels and heart.SkinThis protects and covers the body. It consists of two layers. The outer layer is hard and containsno blood vessels or nerves. This outer layer protects the inner layer, where there are sensitivenerve endings numerous sweat glands and the roots of the hair.Sweat consists of water, salt and some impurities from the blood. The evaporation of thesweat cools the body, and helps to regulate its temperature.219
