Q

Distribution of Blood Flow During Exercise

A

arterioles dilate to allow blood to flow to areas that need it (muscles) and arterioles constrict to viscera not active; veins force blood in the extremities back towards the heart, while one way valves prevent backflow of blood; vasodilation reduces total peripheral resistance

Q

Factors Influencing Stroke Volume

Q

Control of Ventilation

A

respiratory control center receives neural and humoral input from the muscles (feedback from sensory info) and from CO2 levels in the blood; regulates respiratory rate

Q

Ventilatory Control (Graph)

A

peripheral chemoreceptors and skeletal muscle receptors send info to the respiratory control center, which sends info to the midbrain, which then sends info to the respiratory muscles

19
Q

How does the body respond to exercise to enable working muscles to get the oxygen rich blood they need?

A

mass discharge of sympathetic nervous system; increased arterial BP, increased CO; vasodilation in active mm;

20
Q

How does the body regulate venous return of blood from the working skeletal muscles back to the heart?

A

skeletal muscle pump; vasoconstriction of blood vessels returning blood; one way valves keep blood from falling back

21
Q

Normal SBP response?

A

for every MET increase, SBP should increase by 10 +/- 2 mmHg

22
Q

When NOT to exercise (HR, SBP, DBP, O2)

A

HR >120 or 200mmHg or 110 mmHg

O2 Sats

23
Q

When NOT to exercise- symptoms

A

unstable angina (chest pain), mental confusion, leg pain at rest (could be a blocked artery), cyanosis, increasing SOB, severe fatigue; acute illness

24
Q

When to STOP Exercise

A

Decrease or stable heart rate with increased load; SBP >220 or decrease >10 during activity; DBP >110 or +/- 10 over baseline; O2 stats

25
Q

MET Level = Moderate Intensity

A

3-6 METs

26
