distribution
|
delivers oxygen from lungs and nutrients from GI tract transports metabolic waste, transports hormons
|
|
Regulation
|
maintains body temp via capillaries, maintains normal ph via buffer systems, maintains adequate fluid volume in the circulatory system
|
|
protection
|
prevent blood loss , prevent infection
|
|
why blood a connective tissue?
|
composed of cells in a fluid matrix and because dissolved proteins fibrin threads during the clotting process
|
|
leukocytes
|
white blood cells, granulocytes, and agranulocytes
|
|
monocytes
|
kidney shaped they leave the bloodstream and entered the tissues and differentiate into highly mobile macrophages that are phagocytic for viruses
|
|
erythropoietin
|
released from kidneys and stimulates RBC production
|
|
rh factor
|
rh antibodies are not preformed in the blood. they develop when the person who is rh negative is exposed to rh blood
|
|
hemostasis
|
the ability to stop bleeding
|
|
platelets
|
release platelet derived growth factor. that stimulate smooth muscle cells and fibroblast to divide and rebuild the endothelial wall of the vessel
|
|
fibrinolysis
|
removal of clot as healing occurs plasmon a fibrin digesting enzyme produced from plasminogen which is naturally incorporated into clot during clot formation
|
|
antigens
|
cause vigorous transfusion reaction
|
|
antibody
|
May contain anti-a or anti-b that act against transfusion RBC with ABO antigens not normally present
|
|
heme pigment of RBC
|
is degraded into billrubin
|
|
hemocytoblast
|
hematopoietic stem cells.
|
|
tunic intima
|
covered with endothelium that lines lumen of all blood vessels (type blood vessel)
|
|
tunica media
|
is elastin circularly arranged smooth muscles cells that are regulated by the sympathetic nervous system
|
|
tunica externa
|
outermost layer is collagen fibers that protect and reinforce the vessels and anchor It to surrounding structures
|
|
simple squamous cells
|
make up endothelium of the blood vessels and are continuous with the heart
|
|
average blood pressure
|
120/80mmhg
|
|
continuous capillaries
|
abundant in skin and muscle
|
|
fenestrated capillaries
|
small intestine, endocrine organs, and kidneys
|
|
sinusoidal capillaries
|
liver, bone marrow, spleen, and adrenal medulla
|
|
systolic
|
opening the aortic semilunar valve expanding the aorta
|
|
diastolic
|
aortic seminar valve closes and the pressure left in the aorta
|
|
vasa vasorum
|
larger vessel with their own blood supply
|
|
elastic arteries
|
conducting arteries, thick walled arteries near the heart, low resistance that conduct blood from heart to medium sized arteries
|
|
muscular arteries
|
distributing arteries deliver blood to specific body areas or organs have thick tunica media with more smooth muscles than elastin
|
|
arterioles
|
smallest of arteries and tunica media is mostly smooth muscle with few elastic fibers for vasoconstriction that regulates blood flow in response to neural, hormonal, and local chemical changes
|
|
chemoreceptors
|
send impulses the cardioacceleratory center which increase cardiac output and to the vasomotor center which causes vasoconstriction of blood vessels.
|
|
renin
|
is produced when arterial blood pressure declines. is ultimately results in the production of angiotensin II which is a potent vasoconstrictor
|
|
baroreceptors, carotid sinus, and aortic arch
|
in the walls of large artery of neck and thorax. stretching baroreceptors sends a rapid stream of impulse to the vasomotor center resulting in decline in blood pressure they respond rapidly to change in blood pressure for example going from reclinded to standing position activate the carotid sinus reflex to protect blood supply to the brain and aortic reflex to maintain blood pressure
|
|
peripheral resistance
|
resistance the opposition, friction, to blood flow. blood viscosity increases so does resistance. blood vessel length as length increases so does resistance. blood vessel diameter decreasing size of the lumen will increase resistance
|
|
pericardium
|
protects, anchors, and prevents overfilling.
|
|
heart beat and blood/minute
|
75/min
|
|
artia muscle
|
coronary sulcus
|
|
ventricles muscles
|
interventricuar sulci
|
|
two sounds lub dub
|
1. occurs as AV valves close
2. occurs when SL valves close |
|
ECG
|
P wave: depolarization of SA node
QRS complex: ventricular depolarization T wave: ventricular repolarization |
|
affecting stroke volume are
|
1. preload
2. contractility 3. afterload |
|
sympathetic nervous system
|
activated by emotional or physical stressors. morphine causes the pacemaker to fire more rapidly
|
|
parasympathetic nervous system
|
opposes sympathetic effects. acetylcholine hyperpolarizes pacemaker cells by opening K+ channels
|
|
Bainbridge reflex
|
atrial reflex, a sympathetic reflex initiated by increased venous return and increase atrial filling
|
|
hypokalemia
|
an increase in potassium interferes with depolarization by lowering the resting portential and could lead to cardiac arrest and decrease in potassium causes the heart to beat arrhythmically
|
