This type of fat is metabolically static and functions as energy deposits like when pregnant or lactating?
pear/gynoid
man having waist circumference > _ is risk factor?
102 cm/ 40 in
woman having waist circumference > _ is risk factor?
88 cm/ 35 in
What inflammatory mediators are elevated in obese patients?
AGT, transforming growth beta factors, TNF, IL6
most effective tool for long term weight loss?
lifestyle counseling
How does weight loss drug Phentermine work?
sympathomimetic
How does Orlistat work?
blocks the absorption of fat
EBV for obese?
45-50 mL/kg
How much does CO increase for every kg of fat gained?
0.1 L/min or 100 mL/min
an increasead CO is seen as an increase in __? __ remains the same
stroke volume, hr
What are 2 things in obese individual that increase blood volume?
hypoxic induced chronic resp insufficiency and increase in Na retention
In what four ways does the increase in circulating blood volume produce a greater demand on the myocardium?
by increasing metabolic rate, increasing O2 consumption, increasing CO2 production, and normal or slightly abnormal arteriovenous O2 difference
Most confirmatory test of pulmonary HTN with clinical eval?
tricuspid regurg
2 indicators of left ventricular dysfunction?
orthopnea or paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea
Chronically elevated cardiac output leads to?
ventricular remodeling
6 step cardiovascular pathway in obese person
1- increased preload and stroke work 2- increased left ventricular heart pressures and wall stress 3- left ventricular hypertrophy 4- cardiomegaly 5- atrial and biventricular dilation 6- biventricular hypertrophy
For every 13.5 kg of fat the body regenerates additional __ miles of neovascularization?
25
HTN is defined as SBP> ? or DBP > or both?
140, 90
BP increases __ mm Hg for every 10% increase in body weight?
6.5
What 2 things are released in obese peoples’ blood which increase viscosity?
catecholamines, estrogen
hyper__ increases levels of norepinephrine?
insulinemia
obese ppl have __ or __ levels of SNS activity?
normal or increased
What do increased levels of SNS activity predispose people to (3)?
increased insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and HTN
For every 10 kg of weight gained, the SBP increases by ? and the DBP increases by?
3-4 mm Hg, 2 mm Hg
What type of effect does norepinephrine have on Na and Ca?
increased renal tubular reabsorption which results in hypervolemia
How does insulin have an effect on Na retention?
it stimulates adipocytes to release angiotensinogen then activates the renin angiotensin aldosterone pathway which leads to further Na retention and progression of HTN
Obese nonhypertensive pt: what happens to SVR, blood volume, and how is the heart dilated?
decreases SVR, increases blood volume and leads to eccentric dilated heart
Obese and uncontrolled HTN heart: what happens?
mixed eccentric/dilated and concentric/ventricular hypertrophy
What does obesity and uncontrolled HTN lead to?
heart failure and pulmonary HTN (dilation and hypertrophy)
Clotting factors elevated in obese pts?
fibrinogen, factor VII, factor VIII, von willebrand, plasminogen activator inhibitor (inhibits breakdown of clots)
how much more of an increase in developing a DVT bc of surgery does an obese pt have versus a nonobese pt?
50%
Why do obese patients have an increased risk of stroke?
prothrombotic and chronic inflammatory state seen with excessive adipose tissue accumulation
1 unit above BMI, there is a __% risk of ischemic stroke and a __% risk of hemorrhagic stroke?
4;6
What happens to elastic resistance and compliance in obese patients?
increased elastic resistance and decreased compliance of chest wall
fat accumulation forces the diaphragm where?
cephalad
Lung volumes that decrease with obesity?
FRC, ERV, VC, TLC
premature airway closure–> _____ –> _______ –> ________
VQ mismatch–> right to left shunting–> arterial hypoxic event
Supine positioning in obese pt reduces FRC up to __% as compared to 20% in non obese patient
50%
most sensitive indicator of pulmonary fucntion
expiratory reserve volume
volume of air present in the lungs at the end of passive expiration; at this the elastic recoil forces of the lungs and chest wall are are equal but opposite and there is no exertion of diaphragm or other muscles
FRC
the additonal amt of air that can be expired from the lungs by determined effort after normal expiration
ERV
3 lung volumes that remain the same in obese pts
residual volume, closing capacity, FEV1/FVC
volume of air still remaining in the lungs after expiratory reserve volume exhaled
residual volume
2 factors that contribute to decreased SaO2 during DL in obese pt
decreased FRC and increased O2 consumption
apnea is defined as (3):
reduction of airflow > 10 seconds, lasting > 15 episodes per hour of sleep, decrease in O2 saturation >4%
gold standard for sleep apnea diagnosis
overnight polysomnography
3 types of sleep apnea
central sleep apnea, OSA, mixed sleep apnea
type of sleep apnea that is respiratory efforts with no flow, periodic, partial, or complete obstruction, usually produced by excess soft tissue; unable to inhale effectively bc airway collapses
OSA
type of sleep apnea that is apnea without respiratory efforts
central sleep apnea
what causes pt to wake up with sleep apnea?
decreased O2 levels
type of sleep apnea that is delayed effort with varying degrees of obstruction
mixed
7 physiologic changes seen from OSA:
hypoxemia, hypercarbia, polycythemia, systemic HTN, pulmonary HTN (mean >25 at rest), right ventricular failure, cor pulmonale (pul HTN and right vent failure)
