lecture notes Flashcards
circulation pathways
pulmonary
cardiac
systemic
stroke volume x heart rate =
cardiac output
SNS
↑ HR, cardiac contractility, tension of blood vessels
PNS
↓ HR
atherosclerosis
lipid deposits on lining of arteries
causes of atherosclerosis
injury to lining
- HTN, smoking, environmental exposure
thrombosis
clot due to vessel wall damage/ turbulent of stagnant flow
hypercoagulability
excessive clotting
causes of hypercoagulability
congenital or acquired
autoimmune, cancer, myeloproliferative disorders (thrombocytopenia), sickle cell disease, polycythemia vera, oral contraceptives, vascular changes in late stage of pregnancy
thrombus
blood clot w/in vascular system that impedes flow of blood
embolus
any plug of material (thrombi, air, neoplasm, microorganism, amniotic fluid) that travels and can obstruct the lumen of a vessel
thromboembolus
blood clot that breaks off and travels
infarct
area of necrosis resulting from insufficiency of blood supply - results in loss of function of affected tissue
infarction
process of obstructing a vessel
classifications of shock
cardiogenic
hypovolemic
massive system vasodilation
causes of cardiogenic shock
MI is leading cause
any condition that leads to inefficiency
causes of hypovolemic shock
hemorrhage
burns
diarrhea
polyuria - like in DI
massive systemic vasodilation
septic
neurogenic
anaphylactic
