Q

4 things needed for cardiac function

A
  1. Electrical signals (conducted to all working muscle in specific pattern)
  2. Coupling (electrical signals in working muscle coupled to contraction of the muscle
  3. Pumping action (orderly contraction of muscle cells with sufficient force leads to contraction of ventricles then relaxation
  4. Functional valves (if valves open properly and do not leak then blood fills ventricles and is pumped out into aorta/pulmonary artery)

A

ATP dependent PM Ca pump extrudes Ca out of cell

Involved in relaxation

19

29
Q

Qh

A

Controls flow into the arteries

30
Q

Qr

A

Controls flow out of the arteries

31
Q

Cardiac output

A

Total volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute

CO = HR x SV

32
Q

Total peripheral resistance

A

Ratio of the pressure difference across the vasculature to the blood flow through that vasculature
TPR = (Parterial - P venous)/CO

33
Q

Why is aortic compliance important?

A

It ensures constant blood flow during systole and diastole despite pulsatile changes in pressure

34
Q

Why does compliance decrease with age?

A

Due to the calcification of arteries in older individuals

35
Q 
Normal values for
1. systolic
2. diastolic
3. pulse
pressures
A
  1. 120 mmHg
  2. 80 mmHg
  3. 40 mmHg
36
Q

Arteriosclerosis effects on

  1. compliance
  2. SV
  3. pulse pressure
A
  1. decreased
  2. decreased or normal
  3. increased
37
Q

Aortic stenosis effects on

  1. resistance to flow
  2. SV
  3. ejection speed
  4. pulse pressure
A
  1. increased
  2. decreased
  3. decreased
  4. decreased
    aortic valve is narrowed
38
Q

5 key regulators of vascular tone

A 
Sympathetic NS vasoconstriction
Vasoactive compounds
Myogenic response
Endothelium derived vasodilators
Metabolic vasodilators
39
Q

Hypertensive crisis

A

Sytolic over 180 and/or diastolic over 120

MI
Stroke
Heart failure

41
Q

Acute pain
Post-procedure pain

42
Q

5 antihypertensive drugs

A
