CVS

The cardiovascular system (CVS), also known as the circulatory system, is responsible for transporting blood, oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and waste products throughout the body. It comprises the heart, blood vessels (arteries, veins, capillaries), and blood. The heart pumps blood, while vessels ensure its circulation. Common cardiovascular conditions include hypertension, coronary artery disease, heart attacks, and arrhythmias. Maintaining cardiovascular health involves regular exercise, a balanced diet, stress management, and avoiding smoking.
