Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Occlusion of blood vessels leads to inadequate blood supply to tissues which can cause ischemia and eventually tissue damage. This can result in a range of conditions, from mild to severe including stroke, heart attack, limb ischemia, and gangrene. The other options, increases in perfusion and capillary exchange, are not expected with occlusion of blood vessels. Defibrillation of cardiac muscle cell contraction is a treatment for cardiac arrhythmias and not related to occlusion of blood vessels.
