Heart/blood Flashcards
Higher volume. Full and relaxed
EDV
Blood volume leaving the heart
SV
SV=
EDV-ESV
Increased venous return=
Increased preload
Pushes back on heart. Influences stroke volume
Afterload
Increased afterload=
Decreased stroke volume= increased ESV
Cardiac output=
HRxSV
Maximum venous return=
EDV
What are the three types of plasma proteins
– Osmotic pressure
– Clotting
– Globulins
Globulins are produced by
B lymphocytes
Hematocrit=
(RBC h/whole h) x100
Process of producing red blood cells. Stimulated by tissue hypoxia
Erythropoiesis
Most numerous white blood cell. Phagocytic
Neutrophil
WBC. Allergic reactions. Parasites
Eosinophil
Least numerous white blood cell. Histamine, heparin
Basophil
WBC. Phagocytic. Differentiate into macrophages
Monocyte
WBC. Produce anti-bodies. Humoral immunity
B lymphocytes
WBC. Cell mediated immunity
T lymphocytes
Gets built into blood clot
Plasminogen
Breaks up clot when no longer needed
Plasmin
Murmur with stiff narrowed valve. Whistling sound
Stenotic murmur
Murmured with leaky valve-Backflow. Swish/gargle sound
Insufficient murmur
Mechanical Junction that anchors cells together
Desmosomes
Spreads action potentials. Tunnel allows all cells to contract at once
Gap junctions
