last day Flashcards
treatment for influenza a and b
oseltamivir
does cancer cause fine end inspiratory crackles
no - dull percussion
what solute does water absorption depends on in the intestines
sodium
what is gastrin
a peptide hormone
what cells make intrinsic factor
parietal cells
ie pernicious anaemia associated with parietal cell destruction
what other enzyme is needed for optimal action of protein lipase
colipase
inhibit bile salt action
what is the hepatic vein formed of
splenic veins and SMV
main supplier to the liver
where are brunner’s glands found
only in the submucosa of the duodenum
what are some of the facts about GLP-1 and GLP-2
GLP-1 is expressed in more organs
GLP-1 has a half life of 2 mins while GLP-2 has a half-life of about 5-7 mins
both are secreted by L cells and target GPCRs
they are typically responsible for lowering glucose levels
resistance to laminal blood flow is dependent on what
vessel diameter and viscosity of blood
what can cause an increase in venous pressure
inspiration - due to decreased RA pressure
any type of squeezing of venous vessels
how to calculate cardiac output
stroke volume x hr
in litres
frank starling law
an increase in end diastolic volume leads to a subsequent increase in stroke volume
why is there a delay in conduction at the AVn
allows atria to fully empty before ventricular contraction
what happens after a sudden decrease in perfusion pressure
vasodilation to increases diameter to increase blood flow
how to calculate ejection fraction
find out the stroke volume and divide by end diastolic
stroke volume = end diastolic - end systolic
how to calculate blood flow
change in pressure divided by resistance
PR interval
AVn conduction
P wave
atrial contraction
funny current ions
sodium and potassium
what feature of the cardiac septum allows foetal blood to bypass pulmonary circulation
blood flow via the septal wall formed by septum primum and septum secundum
foramen ovale
what do the peripheral chemoreceptors respond to
oxygen , carbon dioxide and hydrogen ions
found in the aortic arch / carotids
common cause of high v/q ration
PE
what is a normal TLC
6000ml / 6L
what is a normal tidal volume
5ooml
inspiratory reserve volume
air that can be maximally inhaled after TV
about 3L
expiratory reserve volume
air that can be maximally exhaled after TV
1.2L
