The balancing of the Autonomic nervous system is created between the ? and ? nervous system.
sympathetic,
parasympathetic
The Autonomic nervous system is controlled by ? receptors. Chemoreceptors in the ? arch and carotid ?(blood going out) are senstive to ? and controlled by the ? nervous system, these receptors send signals along the vagus nerves to ? which ?s BP. Baroreceptors in the ? arch and carotid ?'s respond to ? BP by inhibiting the ? center of the brain, the response is to ? BP, this is a ? response. Stretch receptors in the ? cava and right ?(blood coming back to the heart) sense ? volume, this leads to a reaction from the ? nervous system to increase ? and constrict ? blood vessels.
sensory,
aortic, bodies, hypoxemia, SNS, vasoconstrict, increase,
aortic, sinuses, increased, vasomotor, decrease,
vena, atrium, decreased, SNS, HR, peripheral
The sympathetic system has a normal B₁ response of ? HR, ? AV conduction, ? contractility and an alpha response of ? Beta-Blockers induce a ? response which leads to ? HR, ? Contractility, ? Conductivity.
increased, increased, increased,
vasoconstriction,
Parasympathetic,
↓, ↓, ↓,
The parasympathetic nervous system ?'s HR, ?'s contractility, ?'s conductivity.
decreases,
decreases,
decreases
The renal system retains ? and ? when renal blood flow or pressure decreases. This will trigger a reaction of the ?-?-? mechanism.
sodium, water,

renin-angiotensin-aldosterone
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone-System: Decreased renal artery vascular tone/volume stimulates ? release which leads to ? release, ? 1 is converted into ? 2 by the ? and this conversion causes ? and release of ? from the Adrenal glands which all leads to increased ? pressure.
Renin, angiotensin
angiotensin 1,
angiotensin 2, angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE)
vasoconstriction, Aldosterone,
blood
Renin angiotensin system continued: An increase in aldosterone leads to retention of ? and ? which also increases BP
sodium & water,
Other influencing factors on the renal system: ? hormone causes kidneys to reabsorb H2O. ? peptides caused diuresis and renal vasodilation. Emotions stimulate the ? nervous system which ? B/P and HR. Increased activity ?'s B/P and HR. Increased or decreased body ? can have an influence on the kidneys.
Antidiuretic,
Natriuretic,
sympathetic,
increase, increase,
Temperature
Age associated heart changes, valves can become ? The SA node can become fybrotic which can increase ? time
LV hypertrophy decreases ? time. Large stiff arteries increase systemic ? resistance. The Baroreceptors become less ? (Brown Harry Smegma Smells Vial)
Brown-Baroreceptors have ↓ sensitivity,
Harry- LVH causes ↓ filling time,
Smegma-SVR↑'s due to stiff large areteries,
Smells-SA becomes fibrotic ↑ conduction time or it fails,
Vial-Valves Calcify
Which of the following statements about Coronary arteries is correct?
1. The three main arteries are the LAD, RCA, and circumflex.
2. In most people, the left coronary aretery supplies the right atrium and the SA node.
3. Blood flow occurs primarily during systole.
4. Blood flows to the coronary arteries from the carotid arteries.
1. LAD, RCA, Circumflex
Cardiac output is the amount of blood.....
1. ejected in one heart beat.
2. ejected in one beat expressed in a percentage.
3. pumped from the ventricle in one minute.
4. pumped in one min adjusted for body size.
3. pumped from the ventricle in one minute
The pressure the ventricle must overcome to eject blood is.
1. preload
2. afterload
3. contractility
4. blood pressure
2. afterload
Which of the following is not a B₁ response ?
1. increased HR
2. stronger contractililty
3. faster conduction
4. vasoconstriction
4. vasoconstriction
Name some cardiovascular disease risk factors that are modifiable. high ?, High ?, untreated ?, elevated hs-? and ? (c-u-b-e-d)
↑cholesterol,
Untreated Hypothyroidism,
↑ BP,
Elevated hs-CRP,
Diabetes Mellitus
Elevated hs-? levels increase due to inflammation in the body.

Name some modifiable cadiovascular disease risk factors. #1= ? use, ?, ? inactivity, ?, ? factors, excessive ?
(TDPOPE)
Tobacco, Diet
Physical,
Obesity,
Psychological,

-Ideal BMI - Cholesterol < 200,
-phys activity at goal -un-tx BP of <120/<80
-healthy diet -abscence of Diabetes
