Myogenic mechanisms
•Usually overridden by _____ mechanisms
metabolic
Extravascular Compression
•______ compressive forces alters _______ and consequently blood flow in organs.
•Extravascular pressure decreases the ______ pressure
•Could be both physiological or pathological
•Important in several vascular beds, e.g coronary, skeletal, pulmonary, cerebral and renal circulation.
Mechanical
vascular resistance
transmural
Autoregulation of Blood Flow
•The intrinsic ability of an organ to _____________ despite _______
•F = (____)/ __
maintain a constant blood flow
changes in perfusion pressure.
Pa - Pv; R
The flatter the plateau of autoregulatory curve the (higher or lower?) the autoregulation in such vascular bed.
Higher
_____,_____, and _____?circulations show a higher degree of autoregulation
______ and ______only show a moderate level of autoregulation
Coronary, cerebral and renal
Skeletal and gastrointestinal
Hyperemia – increase in _____ above normal level.
blood flow
Reactive HYPEREMIA–
- (rapid or Transient?) ___ease in organ blood flow following a brief period of _____, usually due to temporary arterial occlusion
