|
Homeostatic mechanisms that control heart rate sensors control centers effectors |
sensors : proprioceptors, baroreceptors, chemoreceptors. control centers : cardioaccelatory (sympathetic ouput) + cardio inhibitory centers in the medulla (parasympathetic output) Effectors: heart, sa node, or muscle. heart is big one. |
|
Proprioceptors |
sense your muscle and joints moving tell your heart that you are moving/ exercising |
|
proprioceptors are here
|
muscle spindle, lamellar corpusce (nerve ending in skin) golgi tendon organ. |
|
baroreceptors are here |
located in carotid sinuses and aortic arch |
|
baroreceptors do this |
pressure sensors (blood pressure) if bp decrease, these send signal to increase HR via cardio stimulation center. |
|
Chemoreceptors are here |
in carotid bodies in carotid arteries and aortic arch, medulla |
|
Chemoreceptors do this |
pH sensors. |
|
Chemoreceptors formula |
CO2 + H2O <-CAH-> H2CO3 <-> H + HCO3 |
|
Chemoreceptors does what during exercise |
Increase in CO2 means increase in H so pH goes down so hR goes up via cardio stimulation center. |
|

|
Cardioinhibitory center is here it stimulates this. |
Medulla output to parasympathetic nervous system |

positive chronotropes. |
|
three things that effect stroke volume
|
Preload Contractility afterload. |
|
preload |
amount of tension in the ventricle before contraction. |
|
preload varies with |
venous return |
|
if more blood returns to heart this happens |
larger the volume of blood in the heart. |
|
exercise does what to preload |
increases it by increasing SV and CO |
|
Frank starling law of the heart states this |
SV varies with end diastolic volume the more blood enters the heart, the more blood leaves. |
|
contractility
|
force of contraction for a given preload. |
|
increase contractility does this to SV and CO |
increase SV so increase CO |
|
Contractility is changed by |
ionotropes |
|
positive ionotropes |
increase contractility such as calcium |
|
these decrease contractility |
negative ionotrope |
|
athletic hearts have this type of contractility |
higher contractility |
|
Afterload |
blood pressure in the aorta and pulmonary trunk that opposes the opening of those valves. resistance the heart has to overcome in order to push blood out of the left ventricle. |
|
an increase in in afterload does this to stroke volume and cardiac output |
decreases stroke volume and cardiac output |
|
this happens to afterload if arterial circulation is impeded |
increased afterload. |
|
on a graph, what happens to stroke volume as afterload increases |
it decreases. |
|
exercise stimulus receptor control center effector |
stimulus: muscle contraction receptor: proprioceptor (were moving) control center: cardio stimulating center(medulla) effector: sa node, which results in increase hr. |
|
hypertrophy |
increase in volume of an organ. |
|
a bigger heart does this |
(hypertrophy) which increases stroke volume and CO |
|
a stronger heart does this |
increase contractility so increase CO |
|
SAID principle |
your body will adapt to stress you put on it. |
|
sv and contractility are bigger rest, this must be done to constant CO
|
decrease resting HR. |
