Hemodynamic Lecture Flashcards
arteries
muscular
most common heart failure
biventricular
most common plasma protein in fetus
alpha-fetal protein
in adults - albumin
albumin
holds water in vasculature
hydrostatic pressure
if higher - pushes blood out
cor pulmonale
right heart failure
most common cause of CHF
artherosclerotic disease of coronary arteries
hyopalbuminemia
lose water
most common liver disease
alcohol use
-liver gets scarred down
steatotic change
fatty change
burns
increased capillary permeability
-loss of fluid
angioedema
facial edema
- *should always be of concern
- may lead to airway obstruction
adult respiratory distress syndrome
damage to pulmonary interstitial capillaries
interstitial pneumonia
primary atypical
-interstitial capillary is where gas exchange occurs
normally only a few cells thick
-some organisms invade this area
lymphatic obstruction
most common
-upper extremity in women with axillary lymph node removal after breast removal with cancer
malignant ascites
nothing to do with cancer
nor does malignant HTN
hypertension
affects at level of arterioles
acute pulmonary edema
left ventricular dysfunction
-can be caused from myocardial infarction
pressure transferred backwards and results in edema
most MI patients
don’t die with initial infarction
-rather die with CHF or later infarctions
common cause of nutmeg liver
CHF
-chronic passive congestion
subungal hematoma
under the nail
petchiae
platelet associated hemorrhage
-
purpura
larger than petchiae
ecchymosis
red cell breakdown
-metabolism of Hg to biliverdin
abrasion
scrape
contusion
bruise
subdural hematoma
venous
epidural hematoma
arterial
visceral hemorrhage
with intrinsic defects in coag process
