1. Ch 14 & 15 Overview of Circulation Flashcards
start at slide 31
Blood flow is inversely proportional to ____
peripheral resistance ( R)
_____: ability of a blood vessel to become stretched
distensability
What vessel on the arteriol side has the more distensability
arteries
- V.’s are actually more distensable than the art.’s
blood vessels are able to dilate bc of layers of ___ btw the smooth M
elastin
Which has more distensability?: art. or V.
veins
_____: ability of the vessel to stretch & the total quantity of blood that can be stored in a given vessel
compliance
high compliance: can stretch and hold alot of blood
Low compliance: can stretch but not hold a lot of blood
compliance = ______ x______
compliance = distensability x vol
_____ collapses the artery so blood flow stops during taking BP
Systolic BP
_____sounds heard when taking BP
horotkoff
____: calc as the differ btw SBP & DBP
pulse pressure
What are the two factors that go into Pulse pressure
- how much the art. close to the heart can stretch
2. vol of blood forces into them at one time which is SV
_______: the pressure that propels the blood into the tiss
Mean arterial Pressure (MAP)
at rest more time is spent in systolic or diastolic?
diastolic
MAP = ______+ ______/3
MAP = DBP + pulse pressure/ 3
during low to moderate exercise, MAP is the ____ btw SBP and DBP
midpoint
- during rest it is more in DBP
at high intensity exercise, MAP is closer to ___ BP
systolic
_______ is why during resting conditions, 64% of all blood vol is in the venous side of circulation
blood reservoir
during rest most blood is in the ___ side of circulation
venous
c.c____: occurs when the valves in the venous system become incompetent
varicose veins
- V.s are overstretched by excessive venous pressure
during varicose veins: the ____ area of the vein increases but the ____ do not increase in size
cross-sectional area
valves
- the valves do not close completely
vessels walls have ___ layers referred to as ___
3 layers
referred to as tunics
(except in caps)
____ is the inner channel within the blood vessels
lumen
