Q

Equation for mean arterial pressure

A

MAP = Q X R

(Assumed the difference between arterial pressure and vascular pressure is just mean arterial pressure - assume no pressure by the time of vena cava - so its arterial pressure minus zero which equals MAP)

Q

24
Q

Arterial blood volume and pressure are determined by:

A
  • a balance between ‘blood flow in’ and ‘blood flow out’

(Blood flow is determined by resistance?)

25
Cardiac output and arterial resistance affect _______
Blood pressure
26
What is ‘blood flow in’ determined by?
- ventricular contraction - ejection of blood - CARDIAC OUTPUT (how much is put in (L/time)) (FLOW)
27
What is ‘blood flow out’ determined by?
- capillary flow - controlled by resistance of the arteries (RESISTANCE)
28
Can control pressure by putting more in or letting less out
True and real - either of these things will increase volume and increase pressure
29
What is the goal?
- mean arterial pressure
30
Arterial pressure equation
Arterial pressure = cardiac output X total peripheral resistance MAP = CO X TRP
31
Arterial
32
Cardiac output is determined by
- stoke volume - heart rate
33
Equation for cardiac output
Cardiac output = strove volume (amount pumped out) (contraction strength) X heart rate (contraction speed/rate) CO = SV X HR Cardiac output: (L/min) Stroke volume (L/beat) Heart rate (beats/min)
34
Diagram of stroke volume
35
Two approaches for meeting the stroke volume vs heart rate in ANIMALS
Mouse: small stoke volume but high heart rate Whale: big stoke volume but low heart rate
36
Stroke volume vs Heart rate: healthy heart v Failing heart
37
For homeostasis of arterial blood pressure, what is tightly regulated
Mean arterial pressure - within a narrow range
38
Can maintain arterial blood pressure homeostasis by maintaining :
- heart (cardiac output) - blood vessels (vascular resistance)
39
How homeostasis is coordinated with the brain stem
- afferent input from both the CNS and ‘periphery’ - efferent output to heart and vessels (controls heart rate, stoke volume, TPR) Harvesting information about physiological state and blood pressure and have afferent outputs to maintain homeostasis
40
Brain shit
41
What are baroreceptors ?
Blood pressure sensors
42
Where are baroreceptors found
Arch of aorta (checks pressure for rest of body) Carotid arteries (checks pressure on way to brain)
43
Baroreceptors are
Tonically active
44
Neural control of cardiac output VERY IMPORTANT CARD
- harvesting information about mean arterial pressure from baroreceptors - feeding it into the brain stem (afferent) - two different outputs: depending on if BP is too high or low - break output - reducing BP by reducing CO (by slowing heart rate) (parasympathetic) VAGUS nerve feeds into Heart at SA node and AV node - accelerator output - increasing BP by increase stroke volume and heart rate (CO) (sympathetic) SYMPTATHETIC CARDIAC nerve feeds into SA node and ventricular muscle to make it pump harder - increasing stroke volume and heart rate - these nerves don’t tell it to beat - SA node is spontaneous - only to increase or decrease activity BAROREFLEX
45
Difference between sympathetic and parasympathetic
Sympathetic speed things up - sympathetic nerve speeds up both rate and ventricular contraction Parasympathetic slow things down - VAGUS nerve - just goes to the nodes influencing rate
46
Beroflelex in a whole body tilt
- reduced blood coming back to heart - lower stroke volume - drops cardiac output but not as much as expected because the heart rate goes up - heart rate goes up to compensate due to equation - sympathetic - therefore mean arterial blood pressure hardly changes as CO has dropped a little bit, but TPR increases (squeezed vessels) to compensate
47
Cardiac output is
Blood leaving the heart ( L/min)
48
Cardiac output is determined by
Stroke volume and heart rate (CO = SV x HR)
49
When is cardiac output increased
During exercise
50
Blood pressure is sensed by_____ and controlled by ______ via ________
Blood pressure is sensed by baroreceptors and controlled by changes to cardiac output via efferent signalling from the brain - parasympathetic signalling through the vagus nerve slows heart rate - sympathetic signalling through the sympathetic trunk ganglion speeds heart rate and increases stroke volume
51
Definintioin of lymphatic
The smallest vessels of the lymphatic system commence as large, blind ending capillaries that are thin walled, contain no RBC’s, and have valves.
52
Definition of cisterns Chyri

53
Left and right side drainage
ALL of the LEFT side (+ Cervical nodes (neck) EVERYTHING below the belly button) - Drains into the cisterna chyli Axillary nodes (underarms) - Then into the left thoracic duct - Then into the left subclavian vein Some of the RIGHT side (hip + above) - Drains into the right lymphatic Inguinal nodes (groin) duct - Then into the right subclavian vein
54
Lymphatic drainage of the breast explanation
• Lymphatic vessels of the breast collect lymph, this travels to the Axillary Nodes and then the right lymphatic duct to the right subclavian vein into the blood vascular space • Breast tissue lymphatic drainage can carry cancer cells into the blood vascular system causing Metastatic cance
55
Sentinel node is most likely to be effected by cancer is breast
