Q

Sympathetic/Adrenergic receptors

  • A1-adrenergic
A
  • Excitation or stimulation
  • Vascular smooth muscle (norepi stimulates a1 > vasoconstriction)
  • Sphincter – GI, urinary (flowmax alpha blocker)
  • Eyes and hair follicles

Q

Sympathetic vs parasympathetic

A

PNS: Autonomic NS (also part of CNS)

  • Input from medulla and hypothalamus
  • Sympathetic & parasympathetic

Sympathetic (parasympathetic is opposite)

“sympathetic to the stress stimuli” para = opposite

Stimulated

Relaxed

HR, RR, BP

GI/GU, saliva, constipated, defecation

Pupils Dilated

Muscles Contract
