22. Regulation of Arterial Blood & CPR Endo Flashcards
What is mean arterial P (MAP)
driving force for blood flow (around 100 mmHg)
how do you calculate MAP
CO * TPR aka HR * SV * TPR or (2/3) DBP +(1/3) SBP
what 3 systems is Pa regulated by
baroreceptors, RAAS (endocrine) ADH & ANP
where are baroreceptors located
carotid sinus (respond to increase/decrease in MAP) –> use CN IX to get to brainstem
aortic arch (respond to mostly increase) –> use CN X to get to brain stem
what kind of receptors are baroreceptors
mechanoreceptors- respond to change in stretch/pressure &&& rate of change of P
chemoreceptors - respond to PO2,PCO2 & pH
when are baroreceptors most responsive
rapid change in arterial P
where do baroreceptors send signals
medulla (vasomotor center) –> then integrate into nucleus tractus solitarius
where do efferents travel
cerebral cortex & hypothalamus
what parts of the brain assist in parasym activity in the CV system
dorsal motor nucleus of CN X
nucleus ambiguus
what part of the brain causes sym activity in CV system
rostral ventrolateral medulla
what happens to MAP during hemorrhage
decrease bc decreased BV
how can a strength of AP be increased
increase freq up to certain point (around 200 mmHg in carotid bodies)
until what point can you decrease AP w/ decreased freq of firing
40-60 mmHg
how does the threshold of aortic bodies compare to carotid bodies
higher threshold
-continue to respond above saturation
BUT less sensitive to rate & less effective for decreases in pressure
what is the result when sym NS is triggered
-triggered when Pa decreases -
constrict arterioles & Vs (alpha receptor) –> increase TPR & VR
- increase HR & contractility (beta 1 receptors)
- fluid retention by kidney bc afferent arteriole constriction & renin secretion
