Reg of Arterial Pressure Flashcards
BaroR Nerve Activity Curve
Increased firing freq w/ increased MAP on sigmoid curve, w/ steepest slope around 100 where you want to reg it at
Symp Arteriolar Vasoconstriction Effect on Capillaries
Lowers P, causing ISF to flow into capillaries further increasing fluid/blood volume
3 Things That Lower Set Point in Medullary Center
Vasovagal Syncope
Deep Pain
Increased central venous pressure
BP Set Point in terms of Symp Activity
Where influence of MAP on symp activity and influence of symp activity on MAP curves meet is where BP is
2/3 Renal Mechs Decreased AP Decreases Urinary Output Rate
Decreased AP means decreased glomerular capillary pressure so decreased filtration rate
Decreased AP activates symp nerve activity, which causes RAS activation but also renal arteriolar constriction, leading back to decreased glomerular capillary pressure
Urinary Output Curve by Arterial Pressure
Super effing steep
