L25 Flashcards
Circulatory system divides into:
Closed: Cardiovascular system
Open: Lymphatic system
Cardiovascular system function:
Delivers blood to and collects it from peripheral tissues and the lung
Cardiovascular system consist of:
Heart, blood vessels
Lymphatic system function:
Collects lymph from peripheral tissues and recycles it into the cardiovascular system
Lymphatic system consist of:
Lymph vessels, lymph nodes
Low 02, pulmonary circulation:
Between right heart and lung
High 02, systemic circulation
Between left heart and peripheral tissues
The heart consist of two pumps in series:
One to the lungs – arteries carry deoxygenated blood
One to the metabolising tissues – arteries carry oxygenated blood
Wymień Functional parts of the cardiovascular system:
Heart
Pulmonary system
Systemic circulation (many compartments)
Wymień compartments wraz z funkcją systemic circulation:
Arteries
Arterioles – the last arteries with muscular walls regulate local tissue flow
Microcirculation – exchange between blood and tissues through capillary walls
Venules and veins
Distribution of blood in the cardiovascular system:
Large part is in the systemic (84%)
2/3 in the veins (64%)
The rest (Heart, Pulmonary, Large arteries, small arteries and Arterioles, and Capillaries the rest is respectively equally distributed
Ohm’s Law
I=V/R In the cardiovascular system: I – flow (Q) V – pressure difference ΔP R – resistance (R)
Flow R~=
Densitydiametervelocity/viscocity
Flow laminar
Smaller vessels (low Reynolds number)
Flow turbulent
Large vessels (high Reynolds number) Heart sounds and murmurs
Viscosity:
Physical property of fluids, depends on its density and particle size []
Flow: Q=1/n
Viscosity ^^ => Flow zmniejsz.
Viscosity of the blood is determined by ….
Its haematocrit ratio:
Haematocrit= erythrocyte volume/whole blood volume
Anaemia- n zmniejsz; polycythemia – n ^^
Do składowych Mean pressure wg. Ohm’s Law należą:
Cardiac output
Peripheral resistance
Do składowych Pulse pressure należą:
Stroke volume,
Arterial compliance
Poiseuille’s Law:
Q= k ΔP*r^4/n*L Gdzie: k- constant (Pi/8) r- radius L- length N - viscosity
Z Poiseuille’s Law i Ohm’s Law:
R~= n*L/r^4
Increase with viscosity and vessel length
Decrease with radius
Net filtration =
Hydrostatic pressure – oncotic pressure (Starling’s hypothesis)
Filtrated fluid =
Reabsorbed fluid + lymph
Edema is caused by …
High hydrostatic pressure or low oncotic pressure
The three main controlled parameters in the regulation in the cardiovascular system:
Tissue blood flow
Cardiac output
Arterial blood pressure
