Q

which activity condition yields the highest mean arterial pressure?

A

resistance exercise. MAP is calculated by DPB + (.03 or .05 (SBP-DBP))
so if DPB and SBP are increased the most with resistance exercise, it will be shown in MAP values

Q

which activity yields the highest total peripheral resistance (TPR)

A

Resistance training- TPR is calculated by MAP/Q.
if MAP is higher in resistance exercise because of higher SBP and DBP, then the TPR will be higher also.
resistance also has a low Q (around 6L/min) compared to aerobic (12L/min)

Q

how did f (frequency of breath) and VT (tidal volume) influence the observed changes in Ve

A

taking more breaths, and increasing the tidal volume with aerobic exercise increase minute ventilation (Ve) the most. an increase was also seen from rest with resistance due to an increase number of breaths per minute, although there wasn’t a big increase in tidal volume

Q

what might the effect be of a restrictive lung disease such as pulmonary fibrosis on FVC and FEV1.0

A
  • FEV 1.0 would decrease because it would take longer and more effort to expire all the air out.
    FVC would decrease
    -the ratio FEV1.0/FVC would be normal since both are effected

Q

how might you use testing to screen an athlete for exercise-induced athsma

A

See if FEV 1.0 is different during exercise because it is harder to expire air
FVC would be the same because the athlete can still breath in the same amount .
-the ratio would decrease because FEV 1.0 is decreased and it is the numerator.

Q

Describe the pulmonary circuit

A

1 deoxygenated blood travels into the right atrium
2. RA depolarizes and contracts. when the pressure is around 10 mmHg during contraction –> tricuspid opens and flow to RV
3/6. RV depolarizes and contracts. when Part = 15-25 closes tricuspid and opens pulmonary valve –> blood to pulmonary artery to lungs
4. O2 blood comes back to LA
5/2. LA depolarizes and contracts when Part is around 10 the mitral valve opens and flow to LV
6/3. LV depolarizes and contracts pressure to 15-25. mitral closes –> opens aortic –>
7. to systemic ciruclation

29
Q

what establishes HR?

A

SA node. but SNS and PNS can have an effect
SNS- up regulates by norepi and eli
PNS- down regulates

30
Q

what happens to heart rate during exercise?

A

aerobic- up to 200-220 BPM due to increased blood flow and a need for O2 to tissues
resistance is only slightly elevated because it relies on anaerobic respiration

31
Q

what is stroke volume?

A

the ABSOLUTE amount of blood pumped out of the left ventricle each heart beat

32
Q

what influences stroke volume?

A

total blood volume and venous return

SV= End diastolic volume(all the way filled) - End systolic volume (how much is left after squeezed)

33
Q

how is ejection fraction different than stroke volume

A

EF is the relative amount of blood pumped out of the left ventricle every heart beat, while SV is the absolute amount

34
Q

how does stroke volume change with exercise?

A

aerobic- increases to get more blood pumping through heart

resistance-doesnt change

35
Q

how does EF change during exercise?

A

it is based on SV, so
aerobic- increases ( up to 70-75% pumped out)
resistance won’t change
rest (55-60%) is pumped out every beat

36
Q

what determines ejection fraction %

A

EF= (SV/EDV) * 100%

37
Q

what is defined as the Rate of blood flow through the heart per minute that determines blood pressure?

A 
Cardiac output (Q)
Q=HR*SV
38
Q

how does cardiac output change during exercise?

A

resting- 5 L/min
aerobic- 20-25L/min (more relying on mitochondrial, more O2 needed, more circulation)
exercise- slightly elevated

39
Q

How does systolic blood pressure (contraction) change during exercise?

A

rest 115-120 mm HG (increased pressure on arterial walls)
aerobic- up to 200 mmHG, when SV increases then EF increases
resistance- up to 300, muscular contraction put pressure on veins and arteries (shrinking the space with a set amount of “stuff” in it

40
Q

how is diastolic blood pressure (relaxation)

A

rest- 75-80 mmHg- not pumping so pressure falls
aerobic- to changed or slight decrease. nothin is going into vessels so nothing should change
resitance>250. pressure on walls

41
Q

Why does MAP have two different equations?

A

because there is a different systolic and diastolic response to different types of exercise. resistance effects muscles and pressure

42
Q

Explain TPR

A

it is opposition to normal blood flow. it is MAP/Q

  • increasing TPR is harder to push blood out
  • decrease- easy to push blood out because less resitance/opposition
43
Q

how does TPR change during exercise?

A

resting 18-19mmhg
aerobic- decreases. due to a larger Q value and normal MAP
resistance- huge increase from rest b/c of HUGE increase in MAP from rest due to HUGE increase in SBP and DBP (during CONTRACTIONS)

44
Q

what value indicates O2 requirement of the Heart?

A

Rate Pressure Produce

RPP= HR * SBP

45
Q

how does it change with exercise

A

resting- 7200,-12,000
aerobic- increase (increase HR & SBP)
resistance- increases during contraction b/c of big increase in SBP

46
Q

How does the autonomic nervous system govern heart circulation by releasing NOrepinephrine

A

norepi comes from the SNS which up-regulates cardiac fxn by B1 receptors (increase force and rate of contraction).
activates alpha 1 receptors that causes vaso-veno-constriction by constricting smooth muscle in arteries and veins and closes vessels down to increase BP and speed up blood flow (not to muscle)

47
Q

how is heart circulation governed by parasympathetic nervous system?

A

actylcholine down regulates SNS activity by decreasing cardiac function with M2 heart receptors
B2 arterial receptors tell smooth muscle to relax by faso/venodialation, decreasing BP and slowing blood flow

48
Q

what feedback do barorecptors and chemoreceptors have on the heart function?

A

they work in the shymapthetic and parasympathetic system in the aortic arch and corotid artery
they are feedback loops that try to get to homeostasis by increasing or decreasing blood pressure

49
Q

which autonomic system dominates during exercise?

A

SNS

50
Q

what are 4 factors that regulate cardiovascular regulation?

A
  1. Autonomic nervous system
  2. Heart
  3. systemic circulation
  4. others (muscle pump, respiratory pump, exercise pressor reflex)
51
Q

how does the heart regulate cardiovascular regulation?

A

the heart regulates that magnitude(how fast) of blood flow through body by:

  • preload
  • afterload
  • contractility
52
Q

what happens if you increase pre load?

A

increase SV and decrease BP to keep same Cardiac Output

53
Q

how can body position influence cardiovascular regulation?

A
  • increases ability to return blood back to the heart

- recumbant bike. enhances venous return

54
Q

what is afterload

A

the pressure the heart must over come to get blood into systemic circulation

55
Q

what influences aferload

A

decree of vasoncstriction and vessel health

56
Q

how does ACH effect contractility of heart

A

if too much ACH - decrease function of norepinephrine- increases contraction and function

57
Q

what influences contractility?

A

intracellular calcium, preload and ANS

58
Q

how does systemic circulation regulate cardiavascular?

A

-distrubution of blood flow by:
neural mechanisms
metabolic conditions

59
Q

what neural mechanisms up regulate in systemic circulation

A

central command center

baroreceptors- monitor blood pressure

60
Q

which metabolic conditions influence systemic circulation?

A

EDRFs - enotherlial-derived relaxing factors

increased H+, co2 lactate, adenosine promote increased blood flow and local vasodilatation

61
Q

how does the muscle pump influence blood flow

A

it helps push blood up and through one way valves

62
Q

how does the respiratory pump influence blood flow

A

expanding the thoracic cavity increases volume and decreases pressure which facilitates venous return to heart

63
Q

what is the exercise pressor reflex?

A

response to muscle contraction that increases SNS to ensure adequate blood delivery to muscles
-it increase BP, HR, CO, and vasoconstriction
reflex activated–> brain –> SNS increase –> spike in BP, HR.. –> eventually goes down to match exercise intenisty

64
Q

why is it important for sns to predominate during activity?

A

?

65
Q

how does sns innervation work in concert with EDRFs to direct blood flow where its needed?

A

SNS causes vaso=veno constriction but EDRFs override SNS at local level to vasocodialate at places where we need blood flow

66
Q

how would exercise effect preload on the heart?

A

exercise increases HR- increase SV increase preload

67
Q

how much the heart adapt in response to chronic exercise?

A

?

68
Q

how do different forms of exercise influence muscle pump, reap, and exercise pressor reflex?

A

?body position –> better venous return

contracting muscles can push blood up through valves & stimulates reflex
