Hemodynamic Disorders Part 1 Flashcards
hyperemia
excess blood in an organ
hemorrhage
blood exiting the vascular department
the heart is a _____ sided pump
2
the ____ separates the blood and the tissues
endothelium
cardiac output is an indicator of ________ function
ventricular
cardiac output is a product of…..
heart rate and stroke volume and cardiac index
adjusted for body surface area
what is another word for perfusion pressure
driving pressure
perfusion pressure depends on……
arterial driving pressure
the sum of all regional flows equals…..
the venous return
the cardiovascular system consists of ____ circulations:
2:
pulmonary circulation
systemic circulation
what is another term for passive hyperemia
congestion
when does passive hyperemia (congestion) occur?
when an organ is engorged with venous blood
congestion occurs systemically as in ___ or locally as in _____
systemically as in cardiac failure or locally as an isolated venous obstruction
tissues affected by congestion appear…..
blue-red due to the accumulation of deoxygenated blood
in long standing congestion, what can occur
hypoxia which results in parenchyma cell degeneration or death
what is pulmonary congestion
the passive accumulation of blood in the lungs
due to chronic left ventricular failure – left heart cannot pump out the blood and the alveolar capillaries of the lungs get engorged with blood
pulmonary congestion causes…..
erythrocytes to be degraded by macrophages - hemosiderin accumulates – “heart failure cells”
fluid is forced into alveolar spaces (pulmonary edema) which results in decreased gas exchange in the lungs
what are the findings when congestion occurs in the liver
central veins get very dilated
