20
Q

what is viscosity (thickness)

A

the resistance to flow

units - poise or kilogram per meter second

21
Q

what is laminar flow

A

normal flow

layers with the highest velocities in the center stream

22
Q

types of laminar flow

A

parabolic - shape of a bullet

plug - same velocity

23
Q

energy is lost in the form of _____ due to friction

A

heat

24
Q

what is Poiseuille’s Law

A

flow rate through a cylindrical tube is directly proportional to pressure gradient, the driving pressure along the tube, and the 4th power of the radius

flow is inversely proportional to length of the tube and viscosity of the liquid

25
Q

Poiseuille’s Law - 3 primary factors that determine the resistance to blood flow within a single vessel

A

vessel diameter (radius) - MOST IMPORTANT

vessel length

viscosity of the blood

26
Q

Poiseuille’s Law relationships:

pressure and flow rate && diameter and flow rate

A

directly related

27
Q

Poiseuille’s Law relationships:

length and flow rate && viscosity and flow rate && resistance and flow rate

A

indirectly related

28
Q

Poiseuille’s Law

radius decrease, resistance _____, flow rate _____

viscosity increases, resistance _____, flow rate _____

length increases, resistance _____, flow rate _____

A

increases, decreases (for all 3)

29
Q

resistance of the arterioles accounts for about _____ of the resistance in systemic circulation

A

half

30
Q

what is Bernoulli’s Principle

A

velocity and pressure are inversely related

high velocity - low pressure
low velocity - high pressure

relationship in a stenosis

31
Q

peripheral resistance

low resistance flow - _____ diastolic flow
high resistance flow - _____ diastolic flow

A

high
low

**look at images on slide 35

32
Q

stenotic vessel might present with what

A

reduction in volume flow

bruits

spectral broadening

33
Q

what are the 2 types of flow

A

laminar - parabolic or disturbed

turbulent - chaotic or eddies

34
Q

what is Reynold’s

A

shows turbulance

***above 2000 = turbulent flow

35
Q

what can increase the Reynold’s number

A

increased flow speed and vessel radius

36
Q

what is pulsatile flow

A
