CV and respiratory systems Flashcards
Untrained HR at rest
60-75
HR
number of beats per min
SV
volume of blood ejected from left ventricle per beat
CO
volume of blood ejected from left ventricle per min
Bradeycardia
resting HR below 60bpm
Diastole
relaxtion of atria and ventricles = low pressure in heart
Blood passively flows through atria into ventricles
AV valves are open
Semilunar valves are closed
Atrial systole
atria’s contract , forcing blood into ventricles
Ventricular systole
Ventricles contract
AV valves close
Semilunar valves open
Blood pushed out ventricles into large arteries
how long is one cardiac cycle
0.8 seconds
Myogenic
heart generates own impulse
CV drift
gradual rise of HR towards end of exercise as SV drops to give heart time to fill but CO needs to remain the same
Why does CV happen
blood becomes more viscous as plasma is sweated out which is harder to pump around body
SV during recovery
maintained during early stages of recovery
HR during recovery
decreases fast
CO during recovery
rapid decrease
3 neural control
propio receptors , chemoreceptors , baroreceptors
2 intrinsic control
Temperature , Venous return
Hormonal control
adrenaline and noradrenaline
How is HR regulated during exercise
receptors detect changes , sends to CCC in medulla , decrease HR sent via vegas nerve , Increase HR sent via accelerator nerve which increases SA node firing
Vascular shunt is
redistribution of blood to working muscles and organs during exercise
Vascular shunt mechanisms
vasodilation and open of capilary sphincteres of arteries to working muscles , vasoconstriction and closing of capilary sphincteres of arteries to non working muscles
Why vascular shunt occurs
VCC in medulla recieves info from receptors, stimulates sympathetic NS
5 veneous return mechanisms
Pocket valves
muscular pump
Gravity
respiratory pump
smooth muscle
veneous return - pocket valves
one way so prevent backflow
veneous return - muscular pump
muscles contract and squeezes on veins
veneous return - smooth muscle
in walls of veins , contract causing blood to flow back to heart
veneous return - respiratory pump
cause pressure difference in thorasic cavity which aids movement of blood
veneous return - gravity
blood above heart returns with help of gravity
