Q

if the HR is too high what is diastolic filling and CO

A

diastolic filling is incomplete and CO drops

43
Q

Causes of turbulent blood flow:

A

high velocities

sharp turns in the circulation
rough surfaces in the
circulation
rapid narrowing of blood vessels

44
Q

Turbulence is increased by

A

decreased blood viscosity

increase blood velocity

45
Q

SVR=

A

map-cap/COx80

46
Q

MAP=

A

COxSVR/80+CVP

47
Q

laminar flow - where is the highest velocity

A

in the middle

48
Q

what does capacitance (compliance) describe

A

the distensibility of the blood vessels

49
Q

vascular complicance=

A

volume/pressure

50
Q

compliance- is it greater in the veins or arteries

A

veins

51
Q

what is the result of capacitance with increasing age

A

capacitance decreases with age- in old age the arteries becomes stiffer and less distensible

52
Q

capacitance is inversely related to

A

elastance or stiffness.

the greater the elastic tissue in blood vessel- higher elastance=lower compliance

53
Q

when venous compliance decreases the stress volume

A

increase- due to shifting of blood from veins to arteries.

54
Q

where is capacitance highest

A

in the vein

55
Q

where is capacitance low

A

artery

56
Q

where is capacitance lowest

A

artery (aging)

57
Q

the force exerted by blood against per unit area of vessel wall

A

blood pressure

58
Q

where does the largest decrease in pressure occur

A

across the arterioles because they are the site of highest resistance.

59
Q

pressure is highest in the ___

pressure is lowest in the ___

A

highest in the aorta

lowest in the venue cavae

60
Q

as blood flows through the systemic circulation, pressure decreases progressively because of what

A

resistance to blood flow

61
Q

aorta pressure

A

62

arterioles pressure

A

50

63
Q

capillaries pressure

A

64
Q

vena cava pressure

A

65
Q

is pulsatile
is not constant during cardiac cycle
what is this?

A

arterial pressure

66
Q

what is the highest arterial pressure during a cardiac cycle

A

systolic pressure (120)

67
Q

when is systolic pressure measured

A

after heart contracts and blood is ejected into the arterial system

68
Q

the lowest arterial pressure during a cardia cycle

A

diastolic pressure (80)

69
Q

when is diastolic pressure measured

A

when the heart is relaxed and blood is returning to the heart via veins

70
Q

what is the difference between systolic and diastolic pressures

A

pulse pressure

71
Q

when capacitance is decrease with aging what happens to the pulse pressure

A

increased pulse pressure

72
Q

the most important determinant of pulse pressure is stroke volume
increase stroke volume does what to pulse pressure

A

increase it

decreasing sv decreases pulse pressure

73
Q

Mean Arterial pressure

A

Is the average arterial pressure with respect to time

Can be calculated approximately as diastolic pressure plus on-third of pulse pressure

74
Q

venous pressure

A

The veins have a high capacitance and , therefore, can hold large volumes of blood at low pressure

75
Q

Atrial Pressure

A

Left atrial pressure is estimated by the pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP). A catheter (Swan- Ganz) , inserted into the smallest branches of the pulmonary artery, makes almost direct contact with the pulmonary capillaries. The measured pulmonary capillary pressure is slightly higher than the left atrial pressure

76
Q

A

Its an indirect measurement of left ventricular performance

77
Q

atrial contraction . Absent in atrial fib. Enlarge in pulmonary hypertension

78
Q

c’ wave

A

RV contraction (tricuspid valve bulging into atrium)

79
Q

v wave

A

atrial pressure due to filling against closed tricuspid valve. Enlarged in tricuspid regurgitation

80
Q

‘x’ descent:

A

atrial relaxation + RV contraction (pulls atrium downward)

81
Q

y’ descent:

A

emptying of right atrium after tricuspid valve opens

82
Q

Cannon wave

A

large wave not corresponding to a , v or c wave. Due to complete heart block or junctional arrhythmias.

83
Q

cvp reflects

how do we guide fluid replacement

A

CVP reflects right ventricular preload

Guide during intravenous fluid replacement

84
Q

Anal veins

A

Hemorrhoids

85
Q

varicose veins.

A

Faulty venous valves lead to

86
Q

venous pump-

A

The venous valves and pump maintain a relatively low venous pressure in the legs.

87
Q

what is important in the transport of nutrients to tissues

A

microcirculation

88
Q

where is the site of waste product removal

A

micorcirculation

89
Q

in microcirculation, with over 10billion capillaries with a surface area of 500-700 square meters- what is their function

A

perform solute and fluid exchange

90
Q

the blood flow through the capillaries is regulated by what

A

contraction and relaxation of the arterioles and the precapillary sphinters

91
Q

what is composed of unicellular layer of endothelial cells surrounded by a basement membrane

A

capillary wall

92
Q

how does solute and water move across the capillary wall

A

via the intercellular cleft (space between cells)

93
Q

the most important means by which substances are transferred between plasma and interstitial fluid is by____

A
