41
Q

What actives baroreceptors?

A

When standing there is a sudden drop in CVP, EDV and SV

42
Q

Which nervous system controls dilation etc. and why?

Acetylcholine

46
Q

Which hormone increases heart rate?

A

Noradrenaline

47
Q

How does ang2 affect arteries?

A

Constrict

48
Q

What do mast cells do?

A

Make histamine to dilate and make capillaries more leaky

49
Q

What has a higher affinity noradrenaline or adrenaline?

A

Noradrenaline

50
Q

What does vasopressin do?

A

Constrict vessels

51
Q

What does ANP do to vessels?

A

Dilate them

52
Q

What causes angina?

A

Heart not receiving enough oxygen

53
Q

What does myocardial infarction cause?

A

Death of heart muscle

54
Q

What does NO do?

A

Relax smooth muscle to vasodilate

55
Q

What is stenosis?

A

Vessels can’t dilate

56
Q

What causes oedema?

61
Q

What hormones alter heart rate? How do they do this?

A

Ach (increasing ion conductance) and beta blockers slow it

Noradrenaline make it faster by increasing ion conductance

Q

What is preload?

A

Filling pressure

63
Q

What is the primary force filling ventricles?

A
