Q

Where radius changes play into effect in physiology

When radius isn’t a limiting factor

A

Small changes in arterioles have big changes in flow and resistance downstream.

When volume isn’t full (flow of blood through vessel is limiting factor)

23
Q

How SVR impacted by hematocrit

A

Less hematocrit= easier to push= less SVR

Opposite for more SVR

Overall effect of viscosity

24
Q

What impacts viscosity in different areas of the body

What is lowest possible viscosity of blood

A

Size of the vessel

Small tube- rbcs line up better, less viscosity than in larger tube

Same as plasma but has to be higher than that

25
Q

Resistance through network is what in series

A

Same as the sum of the individual resistors

26
Q

Resistance through network is what when in parallel

A

Sum of the reciprocal of the individual resistances

27
Q

Relationship between velocity and area in vessels

A

Velocity is inverse of area

28
Q

Which cross sectional area bigger: aorta or sum of its branches

A

Sum of its branches

29
Q

What happens to velocity as aorta goes into branches

What happens to velocity as capillaries form into veins

A

Velocity decreases, surface area increases

Velocity increases, surface area decreases

30
Q

Purpose of velocity decrease in capillaries

A

Spends more time there, better for diffusion

31
Q

Which is bigger in area:

Veins or arteries

Arterioles or capillaries

Aorta of vena cava

A

Veins

Capillaries

Vena cava

32
Q

Effect of turbulent flow on pressure difference

A

Increase turbulence increases the pressure difference required to create flow (less flow at the same pressure difference as laminar flow)

33
Q

Is flow greater in turbulent or laminar flow overall

A

Small amount bigger in turbulent

34
Q

How laminar flow relates to vascular resistance

A

Lamina nearest wall doesnt move, next layer slides under if, velocity highest in center

Larger tubes have higher mean velocity (more things are further away from the wall)

35
Q

How to calculate reynolds number

A

=
p density x d diameter x v velocity
__________________
N viscosity

36
Q

In a bigger tube more likely it will be turbulent if ___ increasing. Higher ___ means less likely to be turbulent

A

Velocity

Viscosity

37
Q

___ molecules are more likely to be turbulent

A

Bigger

38
Q

Reynolds what= laminar flow, what = turbulent

A

<2000

> 2000

39
Q

How driving pressure changes with low compliance

A

Need twice as much pressure, harder to fill when vessel doesn’t push away and make room

40
Q

How to calculate compliance

A

Change in volume divided by change in pressure

41
Q

What is elastance

How is compliance different

A

How hard something recoils after stretching

Compliance is how hard it is to inflate something

42
Q

What wall of aorta does in systole and diastole

A

Systole distends

Diastole recoils

43
Q

Do you want a fast or slow pulse wave and why

A

Want a slow one, means arteries are more compliant and dont shove all of blood in at once which is what non compliant vessels do

44
Q

Vein and artery compliance comparison

A

Veins more compliant at low pressures, but at high pressures they are similar

45
Q

What increasing pressure in smooth muscle does to compliance in vessel

A

Decreases it

46
Q

How volume, pressure, compliance changes with age

A

Cant push same amount of volume with age, CO decreases because no place for left ventricle to put the blood. Higher pressure and less compliance

47
Q

What happens to compliance as pressures increase

A

Flattens out, less compliant

48
Q

How compliance affects pulse pressure

A

Higher compliance means lower pulse pressure

49
Q

How heart rate affects pulse pressure

Peripheral resistance increases with what

A

Lower hr- higher pulse pressure, diastolic time longer

Higher hr- lower pulse pressure, more output.

Mean pressure increase

50
Q

Tension in wall depends on what

A

Diameter. Bigger diameter means more tension, smaller means more flaccid

51
Q

Tension = what

A

Pressure times radius

52
Q

Transmural pressure is what

A

Pressure inside minus pressure outside

53
Q

Wall thickness ___ with increasing radius

A

Decreases

54
Q

What happens to wall in aneurysm

A

High bp leads to them which leads to bigger radius, wall thinner where stretched with greater tension

55
Q

Why small vessels can handle thin wall

A

Radius small, tension low, pressure low

56
Q

What is flicks law of diffusion

A
D (diffusion constant)
Times A (area of diffusion)
Times delta P (pressure difference between two sides)
Divided by 
D (distance over which area occurs)
