Q

what are factors that determine stroke volume?

A

cardiac contractility
venous return to the heart (preload)
resistance for the left ventricle to eject blood into the aorta (afterload)

20
Q

what are factors that affect venous return?

A

blood volume and venous tone

21
Q

what is the baroreceptor response with a decrease in BP?

A

decreased BP –> activates sympathetic fibers –> feedback to innervate the heart to increase HR (beta-1 receptors) –> innervate blood vessels –> vasoconstriction (alpha-1 receptors) –> inhibit vagus –> increases BP

22
Q

what is the baroreceptor reflex in increased BP?

A

inhibits sympathetic fibers and activates vagus (PSNS) to decrease HR (reflex bradycardia) and BP with no direct effect on BP

23
Q

what are factors affect peripheral resistance?

A

vasoconstriction
vasodilation

24
Q

what is the role of phenylephrine in BP regulation?

A

act on alpha-1 receptors to increase systolic pressure via vasoconstriction and decrease the HR

25
Q

what is the role of epinephrine in BP regulation?

A

acts on beta and alpha-1 receptors to increase systolic pressure, pulse pressure, and heart rate

26
Q

what is impact of isoproterenol?

A

acts on beta receptors to decrease diastolic pressure, increase pulse pressure, and increase heart rate

27
Q

how does phenylephrine influence the baroreceptor reflex?

A

it decreases HR

28
Q

how does epinephrine influence the baroreceptor reflex?

A

mitigates its direct effect

29
Q

how does isoproterenol influence the baroreceptor reflex?

A

enhances its direct effect

30
Q

what is the main effect of alpha-1 receptors?

A

vasoconstriction

31
Q

what is the main effect of alpha-2 receptors?

A

inhibits release of NE

32
Q

what is the main effect of beta-1 receptors?

A

excitation –> increased HR, conduction velocity, contractility

33
Q

what are positive inotropic effects?

A

increase the force of heart muscle contractions

34
Q

what is the main effect of beta-2 receptors?

A

vasodilation

35
Q

what are positive chronotropic effects?

A

increase the HR

36
Q

what anti HTN medications act on the heart?

A

rate slowing CCBs
beta blockers

37
Q

what anti HTN medications vasodilate blood vessels?

A

dihydropyridine CCBs

38
Q

what anti HTN medications impact renin release?

A

beta blockers
aliskiren

39
Q

what anti HTN medication inhibits the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II?

A

ACE inhibitors

40
Q

what anti HTN medications act on the kidney?

A

diuretics
aldosterone receptor antagonists

41
Q

what are the physiologic effects of beta-blockers?

A

reduce HR, contractility, and renin secretion

42
Q

what are the physiological effects of CCBs?

A

reduce HR (some), contractility, venous tone, and peripheral resistance

43
Q

what are the physiological effects of diuretics?

A

decrease circulating blood volume

44
Q

what are the physiological effects of RAS blockers?

A

decrease blood volume and venous tone as well as modulate circulating regulators to decrease vascular resistance

45
Q

what are the physiological effects of alpha-1 blockers?

A

reduce venous tone and peripheral resistance (VSM relaxation)

46
Q

what are the physiological affects of central alpha-2 agonists?

A

reduce peripheral resistance and sympathetic tone
