Regional Circulation Flashcards
R to L Heart (Circulatory)
Regional Circulations
- are regulated by what type of mediator
- Series
- Parallel - Endogenous
Endogenous Regulators of Blood Vessel Diameter
- Local Metabolites
- Basal Tone
- Auto-regulation of blood - Kid
Types of Local Metabolites
Active Hyperima - Increased Demand
Reactive - In response to metabolite build up
Exogenous Regulators of Blood Vessel Diameter
1) Autonomic (mostly sympathetic innervation + sympathetic cholenergic)
2) Vasoactive materials - endothelin, angiotensin
Table Oxygen Uptake
ml/100g/min –> oxygen uptake per 100 grams (gen. of activity)
ml/min –> oxygen uptake per organ (more cells… higher)
% = percent of uptake body uses
Table Blood Flow (%)
% = percent of CO the organ. gets
*ideally should equal %CO (CO) % of O2 (used by body) - Not the case
%CO»_space; %O2
%CO «_space;%O2*
Over-Perfusion - other used of blood.
Under-Perfusion
(A-V)(O) * Table
% of total blood oxygen that was taken up by organ.
Better at extracting O2
Resistance to flow at the base of the lung is ______ than at the top of the lung because?
More blood accumulation at bottom of lung –> compliance, –> stretching —> increased diameter –> reduced resistance
Explain Hypoxic Vasoconstriction
normally blood goes to area of hypoxia, in lungs circulation is cut off to these areas.
Metabolic control is less powerful than neural control? T/F
False
Why is coronary blood flow at maximum during diastole
*doesn’t reduce blood to heart during excersize in healthy patient
During systole, contraction of the heart compressed the vessels, reducing radius, and increasing resistance.. during diastole, the diameter increases and boom
Three ways skin regulate temp
1) vasoconstriction
2) Counter current annatormy
Explain Vasoconstriction warms body
Explain how Vasodilation cools body
Explain Counter current warms body
Increases resistance – slows blood – less blood exposed
less resistance – faster blood – more blood exposed to skin and lose heat
Arterioles give to venuele - any heat transferred to veins is transferred to back to body
AV Shunt
In Skin (exposed to environment) Vasoconstrictors/Vasodilators huge changes in resistance. --> Regulate (TPR) Bypass Capillaries
