34
Q

Starlings law

A

The more heart muscle stretches, the stronger the contraction

35
Q

Pre-load

A

Depends on amount of blood in the ventricles

Higher amount of blood = higher pre-load

36
Q

After load

A

BP in aorta and pulmonary trunk immediately distal to semilunar valves

(Basically amount of blood left in heart after contraction)

37
Q

Stroke Volume ( SV)

A

Increased: increase preload or contractility
Decreased: increased after load

38
Q

Heart Rate

A

Increased: exercise, SNS
Decreased: rest, PNS

39
Q

Tunica Interna

A

Lines inside of blood vessels

Exposed to blood

40
Q

Tunica Media

A

Middle layer of blood vessel
Thickest layer usually
Produces vasomotion

41
Q

Tunics Externa

A

Outermost layer of blood vessel

Anchors the blood vessel

42
Q

Conducting arteries

A

Biggest
Aorta, common carotid, subclavian
VASOMOTION

43
Q

Resistance Arteries

A

Smallest

No names, too small and numerable

44
Q

Metarterioles

A

Connect Arterioles to capillaries

45
Q

Distributing arteries

A

Deliver blood to specific organs

Brachial, femoral, renal, and splenic

46
Q

Postcapillary venues

A

Smallest veins

More porous than capillaries

47
Q

Muscular venues

A

Receives blood from postcapillary venules

48
Q

Medium veins

A

Most veins with individual names

Radial,ulnar, etc.

49
Q

Venous sinuses

A

NO VASOMOTION

veins with especially thin walls

50
Q

Continuous capillaries

A

Occur in most tissues

Tight junctions and intercellular clefts

51
Q

Fenestrated capillaries

A

Occur in kidneys and small intestine
In organs that require rapid absorption and filtration
VASOMOTION

52
Q

Sinusoids

A

VERY LEAKY
liver, bone marrow
Allow things to enter circulation (new RBC’s)

53
Q

Simple circulatory route

A

Heart to arteries to capillaries to veins to heart

54
Q

Portal System

A

Blood flows through two cones consecutive capillary networks before returning to the heart

55
Q

A

Decreased vascular tone / widespread vasodilation

58
Q

Obstructed venous return shock

A

Obstructed blood flow

A

Low resting BP

63
Q

Edema

A

Accumulation of excess fluid in tissue

64
Q

Pooling of blood in the legs from standing for long periods of time causes veins to become hyperextended.

65
Q

Erythrocytes

A

Red blood cells

Pick up oxygen from lungs and co2 from the body

66
Q

Platelets

A

Promotes clotting
Stick together to begin clot
Secrete vasoconstrictors to stop bleeding

67
Q

Leukocytes

A

Protect us against disease

68

Secrete: histamine (vasodilator) and heparin (anticoagulant)

71
Q

Lymphocyte

A

Second most abundant WBC

72
Q

Monocyte

Leukopoiesis

A

Synthesis of leukocytes

75
Q

Vascular spasm

A

Prompt contraction of a broken blood vessel

76
Q

Platelet Plug Formation

A

Collagen fibers break platelets, causing them to rupture and stick together to for the beginnings of a clot

Stays active until broken vessel is sealed

77
Q

Blood clotting

A

Last and most effective against bleeding

78
Q

Fibrinolysis

A

Dissolution of a clot

80
