Hello there,
I've been Googling the term "subclavian vein" and I haven't found a concise definition of what it does. However, here's my educated guess:
Since the subclavian artery brings aerated blood to the neck and arms, would the subclavian vein just return unaerated blood from the neck and arms to the aorta which in turn goes to the right atrium of the heart?
Could someone please tell me if my educated guess is correct? Thank you very much!
