(48) Blood Flow Flashcards
(Regional Gastrointestinal Circulation)
- Splachnic circulation refers to what?
- What percent of cardiac output perfuses the gut?
- serves motiliy, secretion, digestion, absorption
- storage site for mobilization during what?
- What processes require the most blood (from most to least)?
- overlap in submucosal arteries preserves what?
- gastrointestinal tract + spleen
- 25%
- exercise or blood loss
- absorptive/secretory (2-4 ml blood/gram) > exocrine pancreas > muscular externa
- arterial flow if there is trauma
you’ve seen this before pal
learn this
most of blood to liver comes from portal vein - 15% - 25% comes from celiac
he says to have a good sense of these going into the examination
this is the same thing

(Regulation of GI blood flow)
1-5. List the five general regulators of GI blood flow
- autonomic nervous system
- general hemodynamics
- local metabolism
- neurohumoral substances
- local vascular properties
(look at graph - he says we don’t need to memorize it - just get an idea)
(Organization of Autonomic Nervous System)
Parasympathetic vs. Sympathetic
- Preganglionic
- autonomic ganglia
- pre ganglionic axon
- post ganglionic axon
- effector organs
- ganglion
- effector organ
- receptor
- CN III, VII, IX, X; S2-4
spinal cord T1-L3
- effector organ
para or pre verterbral
- long
short
- short
long
- smooth muscle; glands; cardiac muscle
smooth muscle; glands; cardiac muscle
- ACh/Nicotinic
ACh/Nicotinic
- ACh/muscarinic
norepinephrine
- muscarinic
alpha 1 and 2; beta 1 and 2
(Autonomic Nerves Effect on GI Blood Flow)
(Sympathetic)
- contraction of what receptors?
- what happens to blood flow?
- followed by what?
(Parasympathetic)
- increase or decrease in blood flow in xecretory organs
- in smooth muscle?
(Intrinsic)
- what type of vasodilation?
- vascular alpha smooth muscle receptors
- decreases
- beta receptor activation and vasodilation
- increase
- decreased blood flow
- VIP mediated vasodilation
(General Hemodynamics)
1-4 What four things will decrease GI blood flow?
5-7 What are three examples?
- decreased cardiac output
- decreased arterial pressure
- decreased blood volume
- decreased fluidity of blood
- congestive heart failure
- disseminated intravascular coagulation
- sepsis, SIRS
(Neurohumoral Substances affect of GI Blood Flow)
(Adrenal Medulla)
- catecholamines
(Kidney)
- angiotensin II
(Posterior Pituitary)
- vasopressin
(GI tract)
- Glucagon and CCK
(GI TRAct)
- gastrin
- decreased blood flow
- decreased blood flow
- decreased blood flow
- increase pancreatic blood flow
- increase gastric mucosal blood flow
(Local Metabolism affects on increased blood flow)
- decreased pO2 and dilator metabolites (adenosine, prostaglandins, amines, peptides) will increase of decrease GI blood flow
- increase
(Local Vascular Properties affects on GI Blood Flow)
- What is the ability to maintain steady blood flow in face of flucuating arterial pressures
- autoregulation
he then skipped over the rest of these - but you should probably learn them
(Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury)
- occurs when blood flow is insuffiecient to deliver an amount of oxygen and nutrients necessary for maintenance or cell integrity
- occurs when blood flow is restored to ishemic tissue
- cellular injury resulting from a period of ishemia followed by restoration of blood flow to ischemic tissue
- ischemia
- reperfusion
- ischemia reperfusion injury
(This is what causes injury)
this is what leads to ischemia injury
note the oxygen radicals
also recruitment of alot of granulocytes
note the differences here
(Types of Ischemia-Reperfusion INjury)
- conditions that directly disrupt gastrointestinal blood flow such as strangulation, volvulus, intussusception, or thromboembolism
- results from systemic conditions, eg, sepsis, SIRS, DIC
- occlusive ischemia
- non-occlusive ischemia
(Gastric Dilatation/Volvulus)
- what species do you see this in?
2-5 What are the four risk factors?
- dogs
- large and giant breeds
- increasing age
- rapid food consumption
- one meal per day
(Gastric Dilatation/Volvulus)
(Principles of Management)
- Shock Management –> crystalloids, colloids, pressor agents (restore blood flow systemically as well as to GI tract), antibiotics (injury to mucosa - lose some host defense), blood products (due to loos of blood)
- Gastric Decompression –> gastric intubation (decompression of stomach), gastrocentesis (needle to vent stomach of gas)
- surgery –> restoration of normal anatomy, gastric resention, gastropexy
