exercise and CV disease Flashcards
How does exercise affect homeostasis
1) incr muscular demand for O2
Circulation of O2 with exercise
1) Lung ventilation produces O2
2) goes to LA –> LV
3) incr blood volume, Hb O2 affinity
4) vasodilation of arterioles
5) muscles extract more O2
Factors that affect maximal O2 uptake
1) genetics
2) training
3) age
4) gender- male
5) heat, altitude
peak VO2 vs. VO2 max
peak VO2 = top level of exercise before stop
max VO2 max = max O2 uptake
what is VO2
oxygen consumption (uptake)
what is VO2 related to
1) workload
2) energy req with exercise
shape of VO2 curve with exercise
1) linear incr
2) then plateau at VO2 max (not often reached)
what is VO2 max
plateau (aerobic capacity)
what is Fick’s principle measure
connects respiratory VO2 with O2 delivery (circulatory) and O2 extraction (muscle
Fick’s equation
CO = VO2 / (CaO2 - Cmixed venousO2)
VO2 = CO x a-v O2
Ca or vO2 = [Hgb] x 1.34 x O2 saturation (%)
mixed venous
when all venous blood gets mixed and goes to lung to be oxygenated (USU MAIN PULM ARTERY)
sympathetic nervous system effect on HR and SV
1) incr HR
2) incr contractile strength (incr SV)
effect of PNS on HR
decr HR
based on frank starling, incr contractile strength and stretch, incr ____
EDV
what does frank starling tell you
more LV is filled (LV EDP), more it will contract (SV)
how does incr preload affect SV
increased SV (and CO) for the same inotropic state
circulatory adjustments with exercise
1) incr blood flow (CO, muscle blood flow)
2) redistrib blood flow (from inactive organ to skeletal muscle)
3) maintain blood pressure (supply vital organs and brain)
where is most blood volume?
64% in veins at rest
effect of HR on ventricular filling and contraction
1) incr HR with exercise (decr diastolic time)
2) @ high HR, systolic time decr
what happens to systolic time at high heart rate
systolic time decr
@ rest what controls heart rate
parasympathetic control 60-80 bpm
what is the anticipatory response
just before exercise HR increased
what controls anticipatory response
central command from CNS (sympathetic activity) incr HR
what happens to HR with exercise
1) incr HR proportional to intensity
2) linear response up to near max exercise
Theoretical max HR
220-age = max HR decline after age 15
early exercise (
parasympathetic
moderate to heavy exercise is ___ stim
sympathetic stim
stop exercise –> ____ activated a
parasympathetic
a
a
effect of exercise on stroke volume
1) vasodilation
2) incr venous return
3) venoconstriction
4) preserve ventricular filling
5) incr SV
effect of incr HR at rest on stroke volume
1) decr ventricular filling time 2) decr SV
