Exam 1 Lecture 3 Flashcards
What is the example cofactor that Dr. S wanted us to know for ATP production
Vitamin B1
Beriberi is a deficiency in what?
How does this impact CO
Vitamin B1 Deficiency
Increase CO from increased metabolism
How many ATP can be made from a normal reaction
36
How does Hyperthyroid increase CO
increase metabolism burns more ATP and burns more O2 causes increase CO
True or false
Pulmonary diseases decrease CO because of a lack of Oxygen delivery to the heart
False
Increase CO because decreased Oxygen levels in blood so CO must increase to compensate
How does AV shunts increase CO
AV shunts cause pressure problems in heart and the blood flow is different than normal heart so heart has to compensate to provide enough oxygen delivery to the tissues
Does LT Dan from forest Gump have increased or decreased CO
Decreased because Heart doesn’t need to provide blood to his non existent extremities
What is the name of the old weight loss drug that we discussed in class?
What is a major side effect of it
Dinitrophenol- weight loss drug, burns glucose inefficient, increase our body temp from increase metabolism
What does PRA stand for
What is this the EXACT same as?
PRA= pressure at right atria
PRA=RAP
What is the normal Intrathoracic pressure
What about the normal value in the pulmonary system
-4mmHg
5cmH2O
How does inspiration impact our intrathoracic pressures
Inspiration makes it more negative
True or false
A more positive pleural pressure will draw blood from the peripheral to the inside of the thoracic cavity
False
A more negative pleural pressure does this
What machine operates on creating a more negative pleural space
Iron lung
A normal lung is under which of the following pressures?
Supratmospheric
Atmospheric
Subatmospheric
Normally under Subatmospheric
How does positive pressure ventilation impact thoracic pressure
Increases pressure
What is a example of an arterial specific vasodilator
Sodium Nitroprusside
(Keep out of light)
How does an arterial Specific vasodilator impact CO
Increases CO
Reduces RVR and SVR
Increase blood return back to heart
What happens to CO when we give a Vein specific vasodilator
What is an example of drug
When we dilate the veins decreases CVP and decrease systemic filling pressure, decrease venous return back to heart and decreased CO
Drug: Nitric Oxide
What happens to CO when we give a mixed vasodilator
Decreased systemic filling pressure from veins dilation
Decreased RVR from arteries dilating so yes easier to get blood back but Psf low
What is happening to the veins if we have decreased compliance
Decreased compliance= constriction
How does a really high SVR impact CO
High SVR usually will decrease CO
Which is more important for Psf arteries or veins
Veins
What does the body do in the acute phase of HF to increase CO
Activates Sympathetic
What do we have to be careful doing to our chronic heart failure patients
Diuresis
Why does the body want to tone down high Sympathetic activity in HF patients
In HF body wants to tone done high sympathetic activity because you need some sympathetic reserve for daily activity like walking stairs
What does the body do to compensate for high Sympathetic activity in HF
Body will retain fluid to increase filling pressure to help the heart
What point is no compensation occurring
Point B
The heart beats best when it is ______ stretched
A little Over stretched
Increased preload does what to
EDV
SV
CVP
Increases them all
Does increased preload increase contractility
No according to Dr. S
by definition contractility doesn’t take into account preload and afterload
How does decreased preload impact
EDV
SV
Decreases them both
How does increased afterload impact
ESV
Aortic Valve timing
SV
SV decreased because we spend less time in ejection
Elevated pressure in aorta will shut aortic valve earlier soon and cuts off ejection
Increased ESV- more left over
