Lecture 3 Flashcards
Arterial-Specific Vasodilator
Sodium Nitroprusside(SNP)
1. decrease RVR
2. decrease SVR
3. increase CO
change in slope
Venular Specific Vasodilator
Nitro.
1. decrease CVP
2. decrease Psf
3. Decrease venous return
4. decrease CO
Change in position
Mixed vasodilator
- decrease RVR
- decrease Psf
- decrease venous return
Change in slope and position
CO formula
Arterial pressure/vascular resistance
What adjusts based on our metabolic rate?
SVR, TPR(total peripheral resistance)
Beriberi
Vitamin B1 deficiency. Chronic high cardiac output
Disease processes that increase metabolism
Beriberi
AV shunt
Hyperthyroidism
Pulmonary disease
Piagetβs disease
Disease processes that decrease metabolism
Hypothyroidism
removal of both arms and legs
Dinitrophenol
Increase body temp. Uncoupled production of ATP. Used as a diet drug.
