Q

What is the flow of input of control of blood pressure by autonomic nervous system

A

Higher centres in brain send signals to….

Medulla which integrates these with info from mechano and baroreceptors and sends signals to….

Q

What is the mechanism for capillary shift controlling blood pressure

A

When pressure falls too low fluid is absorbed from tissues into circulation to increase blood volume thus pressure

When pressure rises too high fluid lost from circulation to reduce blood volume thus pressure

Q

What type of hormone is aldosterone and how does it act

2

A

Adrenal cortical steroid hormone

Causes renal collecting duct of kidneys to conserve sodium ions, promote potassium ion secretion and regulate acid base balance to increase blood pressure

Promotes vasopressin release which increases water retention from kidneys and increases blood pressure

Q

Describe the renin angiotensin system

A

Hypotension (low blood pressure)
Angiotensin release from liver and renin release from kidneys
Renin converts angiotensin to angiotensin 1
Angiotensin1 converted to angiotensin 2 by ACE enzyme
Angiotensin 2 increases sympathetic activity, increases H2O retention, stimulates aldosterone release, causes vasoconstriction,increases ADH secretion

Q

How is renal blood flow regulated 3

A

Renin angiotensin aldosterone system

Pressure diuresis: blood pressure increase increases filtration through kidneys and urinary output

Pressure natriuresis: sodium secretion increases when blood pressure increases so less water reabsorbed to decrease blood pressure

Q

What are the stages in the cardiac cycle blood flow

A

Deoxygenated blood enters R atrium through vena cava at low pressure
Tricuspid valve opens and RV fills
R Atrium contracts
RV contracts and tricuspid valve closes so deoxygenated blood forced through pulmonary valve to pulmonary artery to capillary bed of lungs
Oxy blood from lungs enters LA from pulmonary vein
Bicuspid valve opens and LV fills
LA contracts forcing blood into LV
LV contracts forcing oxygenated blood through aortic valve to aorta

94
Q

What is gamma phase and what is it’s role in amalgam

A

Ag3Sn silver tin

Reacts with mercury to form amalgam

95
Q

What is coppers role in amalgam

A

Improves hardness and strength

96
Q

What is zincs role in amalgam

A

Acts as scavenger by preventing oxidation of metals in alloy during manufacturing and delays expansion

97
Q

What is the amalgam setting reaction

A

Y + mercury ➡️ Y + Y1 + Y2

Ag3Sn + Hg ➡️ Ag3Sn + Ag2Hg3 + Sn7Hg

98
Q

What are the strengths of the components of amalgam and how does mercury effect this

A

Gamma and gamma1 have similar strength
Gamma 2 softer

More mercury yields more gamma 2 so weaker amalgam

99
Q

What factors decrease amounts of mercury in amalgam

2

A

Condensation gives 50% Hg

Spherical alloy gives 45% Hg

100
Q

What is creep in the context of amalgam

101
Q

What creates amalgam with less creep

A

Less gamma 1 and gamma 2

102
Q

How can amalgam corrosion be advantageous

A

Can seal gaps to prevent against secondary caries

103
Q

Which phase of amalgam is corrosion linked with and what is the equation for this

A

Gamma 2

Y2 (Sn7Hg) + O2 in oral fluids ➡️ Sn salts + free mercury

104
Q

When was high copper amalgam introduced

A

1962

105
Q

How much copper does high copper amalgam contain

A

At least 12%

106
Q

What is added to traditional amalgam to form high copper amalgam and how does this effect setting reaction

A

Spherical alloy of AgCu

Used in eutectic phase to eliminate Y2

107
Q

What is the two stage setting reaction of high copper dental amalgam

A

Stage 1
Ag3Sn + Hg ➡️ Ag2Hg3 + Sn7Hg
Y + mercury ➡️ Y1 + Y2

Eutectic phase
Sn7Hg + AgCu ➡️ Cu6Sn5 + Ag2Hg3
Y2 + Eutectic ➡️ n + Y1

108
Q

What are the manufacturers variables in amalgam and how do they effect its properties
2

A

Composition, high copper amalgam have less creep and corrosion and higher strength, they don’t contain zinc so there is no delayed expansion but are prone to tarnish

Particle size and shape, smaller particles easier to carve but result in more mercury whereas coarse particles result in less mercury but are easily dislodged from surface
