Carotid sinus reflex
Afferent: from carotid sinus to medullary center via Hering N, br CN IX
Efferent: PANS from CN X
Aortic arch baroreceptors

Flow through a BV
Q= P1 - P2 / R
Resistance
Poiseuille’s eqn
R = ñ L/ r4
Relation of resistance n radius
R inversely proportional to r4
Myocard O2 demand mediated by?
Adenosine & NO
Coronary vasodilation mediators
ACh,
Coronary vasoconstrictors
NE, AT II, 5HT1
Most deoxyg blood in the body
Coronary sinus
Region most prone to ischemia
Sub endocardium
Holosystolic murmurs
TR, MR, VSD
Affected during inspiration
Carvallo sign
Murmur inc in intensity during insp
