Peripheral Vasodilators ppt Flashcards
BP= what
CO x PVR
what 4 thins create the resistance for b/p (PVR) (looking for what organs and/or body parts
arterioles
Postcapillary venules
heart
Kidney
What causes the short term (minute to minute) b/p regulation in our bodies
and what type of innervation is it
the ANS -> baroreceptor relfex-> in the carotid bodies
parasympathetic innervartion
if the baroreceptors sense INCREASED stretch what does this mean?
what occurs?
what what PNS regulation occurs?
- Increased B/p
- (leads to) increased baroreceptor firing
- parasympathoMIMESIS
if the baroreceptors sense REDUCED stretch what does this mean?
what occurs?
what what PNS regulation occurs?
- low B/P
- reduces baroreceptor firing
- parasympathoLYSIS
Just for your FYI to understand the baroreceptor reflexes
the barorecptor is regulated by the PNS, so the “feed and breed” stage. so if you stimulate it (increased stretch) it kicks in high gear. this causes increased PNS sstimulation that results in parasympathomimesis. or the activation of the PNS so everything slows and lowers. the oppisite occurs with reduced stretch or reduced stimulation, less stimulation = less barorecptor activity whch = less PNS activation so you get the SNS reaction
for a good pic the baroreceptors work on the same pathway as the valsalva maneuver
where are the baroreceptors located
the carotid bodies
where are the chemoreceptors located
carotid and aortic bodies
with the chemoreceptors if it senses low b/p what is stimulated
the SA node
what 3 things are responsible for LONG term regulation of B/P
Kidneys
Cerebral Autoregulation curve shift
Venouse Capacitance
what is the numerical definition of HTN
sustained SBP B/P > 140 mmHg or DBP >90mmHg
what is primary HTN
not caused by other factors
etiology unk
what is secondary HTN
caused by something else
Phenochromocytoma, coarctation of the aorta, etc
Long term effects of HTN
- Vessel damage
- ACCELERATION OF ATHEROSCLEROSIS
- LVH
- D/O- CVA, IHD, HF, ESRF
When do we need to control HTN in the OR (the more common times, we cause HTN)
DL incision Intraop Manipulation/Pain Emergence Recovery
Almost always if a pt is hypertensive on induction what will occur on emergence
htn
(so anticipate this and have drugs ready)
he states hydrolazine would be good for this
what are the 4 major drug categories for differing sites of action for treatment of HTN
Diuretics
Sympatholytics
Angiotensin inhibitors
Vasodilators
periphreal vasodilators are most often used in what cases
CABG
Vascular
Neuro
Periphreal vasodilators anct on what? and speparate into what two categories
systemic circulation
arterial vs venous
how do Arterial Vasodilators work
decrease systemic b/p by decreasing SVR
how do venous vasodilators work
By decrreasing systemic venous return and CO
Hydralazine although we don’t know the exact mechanism of action we know that it does effect what?
K+ channels, it probally closes the channels leading to a hyperpolazization of the cell, which means it can’t depolorize, Ca++ cannot enter contractions decrease
what is the mother of all contraction
Ca++
NTG is what diect or indirect
indirect
No matter what drug you are using for vasodilation they all come down to what someway or another
Ca++
In you open up a K+ channel as with hydralazine what happens to K+
it comes out of the cell (this is not how hydralazine works it somehow increases K+ in cell
how does NTG work
leads to Nitric Oxide, makes cell + increases Guanylate cyclase causing increased cGMP causing reuptake of Ca++ from the SR, leading to Ca++ mixing with calmodulin leading to MLCK causing a contraction
what is Nitric Oxide
endogenous gas
chemical messenger
how does NO work to decrease B/P
NO -> guanylactecyclase (increased cGMP) then cGMP causes vasodilation
