gauge is the size of a needle
a bevel is the part of the needle that has the opening
a hub is the plastic part you connect the needle to, the place where you put a tube in for drawing blood.
pulse pressure is the difference between the systolic and diastolic pressures
aortic volume is the volume of blood flowing through the aorta
lancets are little plastic covered knife things that prick through the skin to get a blood sample, commonly used for diabetic patients
