36
Q

modulate the baseline rate to meet the immediate demands of the body

A

extrinsic controls

37
Q

this center can override the intrinsic heartbeat, increasing or decreasing the rate as necessary

A

medulla oblongata

38
Q

beats per minute

A

pulse

39
Q

liters per minute from each ventricle

A

cardiac output

40
Q

order of how blood moves through the body

A
  1. Artery
  2. arteriole
  3. capillary bed
  4. venule
  5. vein
41
Q

these carry blood away from the heart; they also consist of three layers: outer, middle, and inner. What is it?

A

arteries

42
Q

this carries blood away from the heart; it has two layers: smooth muscle and endothelium. What is it?

A

arteriole

43
Q

this helps to regulate blood pressure; it dilates and constricts

A

arteriole

44
Q

blood flows through these very slowly to allow time for exchange of nutrients and wastes

A

Capillary

45
Q

Through this vessels porous walls happens the diffusion of fluids and solutes across

A

Capillary

46
Q

Only some capillary beds are open at a certain time and this helps maintain that

A

precapillary sphincter

47
Q

function somewhat like arterioles (no diffusion)

A

venules

48
Q

has a large diameter and low-resistance transports blood back to the heart.

A

Veins

49
Q

This has three layers
*outer layer of connective tissue
*middle layer of smooth muscle and elastic fibers
*inner layer of endothelium

A

Veins

50
Q

Valves are also a part of this vessel and they act as a blood reservoir

A

veins

51
Q

this monitors the resting blood pressure

A

medulla

52
Q

this is a form of dilation

A

vasodilation

53
Q

this is a form of constriction

A

vasoconstriction

54
Q

this keeps blood pressure within normal limits in the face of sudden changes

A

Baroreceptor reflex

55
Q

where are baroreceptors found?

A

the carotid arteries in the neck, and in the arch of the aorta

56
Q

This is to and from the lungs; exchange of CO2 for O2 in the lungs

A

Pulmonary Circuit

57
Q

to body’s tissues; bring this O2 to tissues; carries CO2 and waste away from tissues

A

Systematic Circuit

58
Q

Carries O2 rich blood to the small intestine

A

Mesenteric artery

59
Q

What is a portal vein?

A

Connect two separate capillary beds - digestive bed to liver bed

60
Q

back to the heart (inferior vena cava)

A

Hepatic Vein

61
Q

Hypertension, atherosclerosis, heart attack, heart failure, embolism, stroke, varicose veins

A

Most Common Cardiovascular diseases

62
Q

The “silent killer” – often without symptoms
120/80 or below

A

Hypertension

63
Q

Leaky capillaries
Internal bruising
Stroke

A

Chronic Hypertension

64
Q

Dietary restrictions – reduce SUGAR!!!!
Moderate exercise
Reducing smoking and drinking
Medications

A

Control of hypertension

65
Q

Hardening and Thickening of arteries due to chronic hypertension

A

Atherosclerosis

66
Q

block lumen and reduce blood flow

A

plaque accumulation

67
Q

clot blocks blood flow

A

Thrombosis

68
Q

clot dislodged floats into other organ and blocks blood flow

A

Embolism

69
Q

embolism in brain

A

stroke

70
Q

blocks part of brain from receiving O2 and nutrients; must act F.A.S.T.

A

Stroke

71
Q

*Sudden difficulty speaking, blindness in one eye, and numbness and/or weakness, usually on one side of the body
*Stroke can also cause aphasia (loss of speech), loss of fine motor control, paralysis, or even death

A

Symptoms of a stroke

72
Q

This occurs when a vessel wall “balloons” under pressure

A

Aneurysm

73
Q

An embolism or aneurysm in the brain can cause a ?

A

Stroke

74
Q

Lack of O2 to cardiac muscle
Coronary artery blockage

A

Myocardial Infarction or Heart Attack

75
Q

Main difference from heart attack is that this is the result of narrowed coronary arteries
Pain resulting from temporary loss of oxygen to heart

A

Angina

76
Q

occurs upon strenuous activity
can be treated by reducing activity and/or quitting smoking

A

stable angina

77
Q

occurs without apparent stimulus
an early warning of impending heart attack

A

unstable angina

78
Q

*Fatigue
*Difficulty breathing
*Tachycardia (rapid heart rate – above 100 beats per minute)
*accommodation
