CV drift Flashcards
1
Q
Cardiovascular drift flow chart (10 steps)
A
-Exercise (10+ mins)
-Sweat
-Decreased in blood plasma
-Decrease in venous return
-Decrease diastolic filling
-Decrease stretching of the cardiac walls
-Less force of contraction
-Decreased stroke volume
-Increased heart rate to maintain cardiac output
-Increase in cardiac output to cool body down
2
Q
what is cardiovascular drift
A
when we reach a steady state we assume our heart rate levels out but it raises slightly
3
Q
What is the result of a decrease in blood plasma in CV diff
A
Through sweating our blood pressure decreases
