1.7 PHYSIOLOGY -Cardio Flashcards
Other name right atrial pressure
Central venous pressure
Semilunar valves
Aortic and pulmonic
2 arteries that carry deoxygenated blood
Pulmonary artery and umbilical artery
Area in the human body with 100 percent oxygenation
Pulmonary vein
3 shunts present in fetal circulatiom
Ductus venosus
Foramen ovale
Ductus arteriosus
4 layers of the artery
Tunica intima, media, externa and serosa
Tunica externa + serosa
Tunica adventitia
Alpha 1 receptors in arterioles are mainly responsible for
Smooth muscle constriction, vasoconstriction
Are varicose veins a risk factor for DVT?
No.
Immobilization
Beta 2 receptors are responsible for
Smooth muscle relaxation
When arterioles vasoconstrict, what happens to blood flow and TPR?
BF dec
TPR inc
When arterioles dilate, what happens to blood flow and TPR?
Inc BF
Dec TPR
Where do you usually find alpha 1 receptors?
Skin, splanchnic, renal
Where do you usually find beta 2 receptors?
Skeletal muscles
Reservoir of blood
Veins
Parts before true capillaries
Arteriole-> metarteriole > precapillary sphincters
Veins contain which type of receptors?
Alpha 1
Percentage of blood to the following organs from the aorta:
Cerebral Coronary Renal GI Skeletal Skin
Cerebral 15 Coronary 5 Renal 25 GI 25 Skeletal 25 Skin 5
How many percent of blood are in the veins?
64%
Formula for compliance
C= V/P
The greater the reynold’s the number, the greater the probability of
Turbulent blood flow
Velocity is highest at the ____ of the blood flow
Center
Max heart rate
220-age
2 reasons for phase 2
Calcim induced cal release
Ventricular filling
