week 9 + 10 Flashcards
heart failure s any fucnitonal.structureal issue that____
causes low cardiac output
what are the 2 most common causes of chronic. heart failure?
CAD - previous MI
chronic uncontrolled BP
hypokalemia would lead to ___ autoamticity.Why
decrease MAP – increase baroreceptors – icnrease SNS - increase in automaticitiy
drugs like cocaine or meth would do what to eutomaticity. why
increase automaticity - act lie EP or NE - ramp up SNS activity
pain or anxiety would do what to autmaticity and why
increase- fight/flight -increase SN ctivity
hypercapnia (high blood co2) would do what to what to automaticity?
increase SNS - increase chemorecpetors
heart damage/disease would do what to autmaticity
decrease - becuase it slows conduction system of ehart
what does electrolyte imabalnce do to the automaticity of the hear
decrase excitability of SA node - decrsae autmaticity
what would hypothermia do to autmaticicty?
decrease - decrease body temp - decrea met reate
what would the vasovagal refelx do to automaticity of the heart and why?
vasovagal refelx - ovvveractivtiaon of vagus N and PNS
SV is a function of ___. and __
EDV nd myocaridal cotnracitlity
what is ejeciton fraction?
How wel the venticle pumps blood with each beat
what is the difference between heart failure due to systolic and diastolic dysfunction o
systolic - ventricles cant pump hatd enough (contracitlity issue)
- weakened ventricle
diastoluc -not enough blood into venicles during diastole
- impaired relaxation
- result: normal ejectrion fraction, low
what happens to ejection fraction and CO in systolic vs diastolic dysfunction?
systolic - lower EF and CO
diastolic - normal EF - lower CO
systolic dysfunction is also refferred to as___
diastolic as ___
heat failure with reduced EF
Heart failrue with presevred EF
what happens to EF and CO in systolic vs diatolic dysftunnion
systolic - decreased EF and CO
diastolic - decreased CO, preserved EF
what does initial compensation of heart failure work to do?
mechanisms to maintain sufficient CO and MAP i. order to perus tissues
what does evenual decomepnstaion of CO lead to?
congestive failure - blood begins to back up into pulmonary or sytemic circulation (epndig on side of heart)
what ar ethe twi ways we initiall compesnate to restore CO in ehart failrue? what is teh resulr?
increase barorecptor refelex
renin-angiotensin-aldosteron system
increase MAP
result is venricular hyeprotphy
what does left sided heart failure lead to?
pulmonary edema
explain the pathogensis of left sided heart failure?
the left ventricle is weaker and must contact with more force to overcome afterload - LV hypertrophy - eventual failure: decreased CO, blood backs up into pulmonary circulation = pulmonary edema
pulmonary edema is most likely caused by?
pulmonary edema most likely caused by left sided heart failure
what is most common cause of left sided hear failure
hypertesnion
what is the most common cause of right sided heart failure
COPD/pulmonsty ises
