Ch 11d: Cardiovascular System: Heart Flashcards
What factors can affect regulation of blood vessels?
Neural control
Renal control
What operates via reflex arcs that involve:
Cardiovascular center of medulla
Baroreceptors
Neural Control
What are baroreceptors?
Stretch receptors
Where are baroreceptors found?
In carotid synesis and aortic arch
For Neural Control:
In parasympathetic, what decreases rate and what increases delay?
SA node decreases rate
AV node increases delay
For Neural Control:
In Sympathetic, what increases rate and what decreases delay?
What else increases?
SA node increases rate
AV node decreases delay
Stroke volume increases
Study the baroreflexes for Neural Control
What is this:
- Baroreceptors quickly adapt to chronic high or low BP
- Long term control BP via kidneys
- Kidneys regulate arterial blood pressure indrectly
Renal Regulation
What is RAAS
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System
low blood flow in kidneys turns into renin which turns into Angiotensin II which stimulates what 4 things?
Stimulates release of Anti-diaretic hormone (ADH)
Stimulates Aldosterin
Vasoconstriction
Stimulates thirst center
Angiotensin II –> stimulates release of ___________ –> increase water reabsorption –> increase volume –> increase Pressure
Anti-diaretic hormone
Angiotensin II –> stimulates __________ –> causes kidneys to reabsorb salt –> reabsorb water –> increase blood volume –> Pressure
Aldosterin
Angiotensin II –> ___________ –> increase TPR –> increase Pressure
vasoconstrictor
Angiotensin II –> stimulates _________ –> water intake –> increase blood volume –> increase BP
Thirst Center
What is Hydrostatic pressure?
Blood pressure forces fluid and solutes out of capillaries
