What is preferential: laminar or turbulent flow?
|
Laminar flow, sometimes known as streamline flow, occurs when a fluid flows in parallel layers, with no disruption between the layers.
|
|
What is the formula for flow?
|
Q = V/T = volume/time
|
|
With the same flow (Q), if radius increases what happens to velocity?
|
Velocity decreases.
|
|
How is turbulent flow mathematically calculated?
|
Renold's number Nr = pDV/n
p = fluid density D = vessel diameter V = mean velocity n = fluid viscosity |
|
What values of Rn indicate laminar and turbulent flow?
|
Rn < 2000 = laminar flow
2000 < Rn < 3000 transitional Rn > 3000 = turbulent flow |
|
How does fluid density, vessel diameter, mean velocity, and fluid viscosity relate to turbulence?
|
Nr = pDV/n
/\ fluid density (p) -> /\ turbulence /\ diameter (D) -> /\ turbulence /\ mean velocity (V) -> /\ turbulence /\ fluid velocity -> \/ turbulence |
|
What is flow?
|
Q = (Pi-Po)/R
delPressure/Resistance |
|
What is CO with regard to flow and pressure?
|
(MAP-RAP)/Rtpr
RAP = Mean Right Atrial Pressure TPR = total peripheral resistance |
|
What factor changes resistance the most?
|
vessel radius because R is inversely proportional to r^4
|
|
What is Poiseuilles' Law?
|
Q = (pi)*(Pi-Po)*(r^4)/(8nl)
know how changes in left affect right |
|
How do you calculate total peripheral resistance?
|
TPR = (MAP-RAP)/CO
|
|
What is the total resistance of a series arrangement of individual resistances?
|
the sum of the resistances which will increase overall resistance
|
|
What is the total resistance of a parallel arrangement of individual resistances?
|
1/R = 1/R(n) + 1/R(n+1) + .....
which will decrease overall resistance |
|
How does one estimate MAP?
|
diastolic P + 1/3*PP
so for 150/90, diastolic P = 90, PP = 150-90 = 60 MAP = 90+60/3 = 110 |
|
What causes an elevated MAP?
|
/\ CO or /\ TPR
use (MAP-RAP) = CO*TPR (assume negligible RAP) |
|
If brachial pressure is 150/90mmHg, then what is MAP?
What are the two possibilities to produce this pressure? |
MAP = diastolic P+1/3PP
=90+(150-90)/3 = 110 mmHg /\ CO, /\ R as TPR |
|
For this pt, if normal CO is 5L/min and MAP normally is 90, then is CO or TPR the problem for him if the MAP is 110mmHg?
|
Calc normal TPR
TPR = MAP/CO = 90/5 Calc pts TPR @ MAP=110mmHg TPR = MAP/CO = 110/5 So the problem is that the TPR is high. |
|
If a pt has brachial P = 160/100 mmHg and the CO = 6 L/min, what is the R? What is the pts problem/why are they hypertensive? Note that for this pt, normal TPR ~ 20 mmHg/L/min.
|
MAP = 100+60/3 = 120 mmHg
TPR = MAP/CO = 120/6 = 20 mmHg/L/min (normal) so the problem is /\ CO |
|
If a pt has high output what are the possibilities of preload, afterload, and contractility?
|
/\ preload, \/ afterload, /\ contractility
|
|
What is the R for organ 1 and for organ 2?
|
R1 = P/Q = 100/300 = 1/3
R2 = P/Q = 100/500 = 1/5 |
|
MAP = 100 mmHg
Venous P = 2 mmHg Qrest = 100 ml/min Qexercise = 200 ml/min What is Rrest? Rexercise? Why is it different? |
Rrest = P/Qrest = 100/100 = 1
Rexercise = P/Qexercise = 100/200 = 0.5 vasodilation |
|
What is the Fick method?
|
O2 consumed/{arteriole O2 - venous O2)*100 =
VO2/([CaO2]-[CvO2])*100 = L/min Fick method in which the cardiac output is calculated as the quotient of oxygen uptake (O2) and the difference of the arterial and mixed venous oxygen content. |
