The jugular vein in the neck is responsible for returning blood from the brain and upper body to the right inside of the heart. The vein is like a fast flowing river, which has to return the blood quickly so that it can be pumped to the lungs to pick up more oxygen. The vein lies deep in the neck in order to keep itself from harm's way, but this is not always possible. Kurt Jory's jugular was slashed from the force of a sharp ice skate. The injury is rare, and you will see more cases in ICU units through stabbings and knife accidents.
