cardiac output equation
CO= HRxSV
normal CO for men and women
men= 5.6L/min women= 4.9L/min
what can the average cardiac output get up to during exercise?
15-20 L/min
~3 fold increase
Does cardiac output increase or decrease with age?
decrease
angiotensin II
circulating hormone
induce release of Ca
release of NE
positive inotropic
thyroid hormone
regulate metabolism
positive chronotropic and inotropic
hyper/hypo
inotropic
increase contraction
insulin
increase glucose uptake
positive inotropic effects
PI3K signaling pathway
glucagon
increased blood glucose
positive chronotropic and inotropic effects
increases cAMP
hypokalaemia
low K+ extracellular
hyperpolarizes
cardiac arrest
hyperkalaemia
excess K extracellular
depolarizes membrane potential
muscle weakness
blocks conduction
hypocalcemia
cardiac muscle weakness
hypercalcaemia
increased contraction potentially spastic
frank-starling mechanism
greater the stretch on resting muscle (preload) the greater the contraction
what is stretch determined by?
end diastolic volume/pressure
starlings law of the heart
the energy of contraction of a cardiac muscle fiber is proportional to the initial fiber length at rest
venous return
amount of blood flow back to the heart
how does increased preload change the pressure-volume curve
increased preload usually means increased EDV and increased stroke volume
curve gets wider
afterload
the force that contracting myocytes must overcome
what can increase afterload
increases in arterial pressure, aortic pressure and aortic stenosis
how does afterload change the pressure-volume curve?
height increases due to increase in pressure the LV must create and increases ESV
what is the percent of blood in pulmonary circulation
9%
what is the percent of blood in the veins, venules, venous sinouses
64%
what determines blood pressure and blood flow
vasoconstriction and vasodilation
endothelial nitric oxide synthase
constitutively expressed (eNOS) inducible (iNOS)
what can NO bioavailability be reduced by?
presence of free radicals
neural stimulation
sympathetic vasoconstriction (NE)
endocrine/paracrine
CO2, H+, adenosine
artery components
endothelium
elastic tissue
smooth muscle
fibrous tissue
arteriole components
endothelium
smooth muscle
capillary components
endothelium
venule component
endothelium
fibrous tissue
vein components
endothelium
elastic tissue
smooth muscle
fibrous tissue
arteries
expand to hold blood, compliant
elastic recoil maintains consistant pressure
arterioles
smooth muscle and surgace area and can change BF to different tissues
capillaries
endothelial cells allow only 1 RBC to pass at a time
veins
large diameter
reservoir for blood
what do veins induce and how?
one way blood flow
one way valves
