17
Q

substances that act on the myocardium to alter its contractility

A

inotropic agents

18
Q

what receptors receive ACh released by the parasympathetic nervous system?

A

muscarinic on atria

19
Q

first sound heard through stethoscope after blood flow has been stopped by inflated cuff

A

systolic BP

20
Q

what are the efferent components of blood pressure regulation?

A

sympathetic, parasympathetic, vasomotor tone

21
Q

how does ADH affect BP?

A

increases blood volume

22
Q

sends impulses to arterioles throughout the body producing moderate vasoconstriction

A

vasomotor tone

23
Q

where is blood pressure lowest?

A

as it returns to the right atrium

24
Q

what factor influences peripheral resistance the most?

A

vessel radius

25
Q

which 2 parts of the brain regulate blood pressure and flow?

A

medullary cardiovascular center and hypothalamus

26
Q

what are the 4 hormones that raise BP?

A

aldosterone, norepi and epi, antidiuretic hormone

27
Q

what are the effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway?

A

vasoconstriction and aldosterone (Na, H20, BV all increase)

28
Q

what is the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway?

A

BP goes down > renin released from kidneys > Angiotensin I converted to Angiotensin II by ACE

29
Q

what does the sympathetic nervous system do to increase HR?

A

releases norepinephrine and epinephrine

30
Q

principle that states that the more blood there is in the ventricles, the more contraction strength there will be

A

Frank Starling’s Law

31
Q

which hormone lowers BP?

A

atrial natriuretic peptide/factor

32
Q

what is average cardiac output?

A

5,000 mL/min

33
Q

measure of the level of exercise an individual can pursue above rest level

A

cardiac reserve

34
Q

what is the equation for cardiac output?

A

CO = Stroke volume x heart rate

35
Q

how does ANF/ANP affect BP?

A

reduces blood volume

36
Q

where do you place the sphygmomanometer?

A

over the brachial artery

37
Q

frictional resistance in the arteries; inversely related to stroke volume

A

total peripheral resistance (afterload)

38
Q

what is pulse pressure?

A

systolic BP - diastolic BP

39
Q

what are the effects of norepi and epi on the cardiovascular system?

A

increase HR, vasoconstriction

40
Q

what is the equation for blood pressure?

A

BP = CO x Resistance

41
Q

140 or greater systolic BP; 90 or greater diastolic BP

A

hypertension
