circulatory (medicine)


circulatory


Having to do with the circulation, the movement of fluid in a regular or circuitous course. Although the adjective circulatory need not necessarily refer to the circulation of the blood, for all practical purposes today it does. A circulatory problem is taken usually to be a problem with the blood circulation, for example with heart failure.
