The amount of blood pumped each minute is called _____ _____
cardiac output
Cardiac Output is determined by ___ ___ and ___ ___
Stroke Volume; Heart Rate
Stoke volume is volume of blood pumped per _____; Heart rate is beats per ______
stroke; minute
Average CO:
CO= SV x HR
70 mL/beat x 70 beats/min = 4900 mL/min = ____ L/min
5 L/min
5 L/min is CO at rest, but during exercise, CO can reach up to ____ L/min
40 L/min
Increases in stroke volume (volume of blood pumped) is mainly determined by how hard the ventricles contract called "_______"
contractility
GENERAL SCHEMA OF CO CONTROL (diagram)
-Extrinsic (Nervous/hormonal) signal SNS and PNS to increase/decrease HR, SV, venous return

-Intrinsic Controls (Venous return/EDV) increase SV
more blood in the heart=more that can be pumped out

more venous return = more EDV = more cardiac output
Parasympathetic supresses SA node which decreases HR by supressing the ___ node
SA node
decreases HR (= decrease CO)
Sympathetic stimulation causes release of epine./norepi. which binds to Beta 1 receptors to _____ HR by
increases HR (= increases CO)
this happens b/c:
1. norepi. speeds SA and AV depolorization
2. norepi. speeds Ca2+ entry into atria/ventricle contracetile fibers which increases contractility and increases more blood during systole
With a moderate increase in HR, SV doesn't decline b/c increased _______ offsets decreased preload
contractility
With a maximum increase in HR, SV is _____ due to a shorter filling time
decreased
Instrinsic control involves just the heart itself, no _____ from nerves or hormones
input
The heart _____ pumps all the blood returned to it
normally
Increased venous return (preload) results in an increased ____
SV
With cardiac muscle, as you stretch it by filling the heart more(to a point), the stronger the ________
contraction
If there is SNS stimulation, the heart will beat ____ and ____
stronger and harder
When contractility reaches it's maximum, all ______ have been met and the Frank Starling curve plateaus out
crossbridges
Extrinsic control of CO is controlled by the CV in the ______ _______
medulla oblongata
Input comes from higher brain centers: cerebral cortex, limbic system, and the _________
hypothalamus
Input also comes from sensory receptors- Proprio monitor _____, Chemo monitor ______, Baro monitor ______
movements; blood chemistry (CO2, O2); blood pressure
Input is then sent to CV to decide what to do: ________
output
CV center sends ______ impulses through cardiac accelerator nerves
sympathetic
Cardiac accelerator nerves cause increased rate of spontanteous depolorization in __ and __ nodes which increases HR
SA and AV

*increased HR doesn't mean increased SV (shorter fill time)
Cardiac accelerator nerves cause increased _____ of atria and ventricles to increase SV
contractility
CV center sends ____ impulses through the vagus nerves
parasympathetic
Vagus nerves cause decreased rate of spontaneous depolorization in ___ and __ node and decreases HR
SA and AV
The majority of the time, we are in _______ mode
parasympathetic
AUTONOMIC RECEPTORS OF HEART/BLOOD VESSELS- SNS (Adrenergetic receptors):

The three are ____, ____, and _____
Alpha, Beta 1, Beta 2
Alpha receptors are found in the blood vessels of the _______
viscera (kidneys, liver, etc)
Alpha receptors cause _____ and are stimulated by norepi/epi
vasoconstriction
Beta 1 receptors are found in the _____
heart
Beta 1 receptors increase ____ and _____ and are stimulated by norepi/epi
HR and contractility
Beta 2 receptors are found in the ___ ___ of the heart, muscle, and bronchioles
blood vessels
Beta 2 receptors cause ____ and _____ and are ONLY stimulated by epinephrine
vasodilation and bronchiodilation
DRUGS AFFECTING ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS:
Agonists (stimulators)
1. Beta 2: _______ (asthma)
2. Beat 1: ________ (raises HR in shock patients)
DRUGS AFFECTING ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS:
Agonists (stimulators)
1. Albuterol (dialates bronchioles)
2. Dopamine (increases HR)
DRUGS AFFECTING ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS:
Antagonists (blockers)
1. Beta Blocker: ______ (lowers BP)
2. Alpha Blocker: _____ (Emergency BP lowerer, hospitals only)
DRUGS AFFECTING ADRENERGIC RECEPTORS:
Antagonists (blockers)
1. Propranolol
2. Prazosin
M2 receptors are found on the heart and in _____ _____
blood vessels
M2 receptors decrease ___ and contractility
HR
M2 receptors cause limited ______
vasodilation
M2 receptors are siumlated by _______
Acetylcholine (ach)
What is an example of a drug that blocks M2 receptors?
Atropine
In SA node, PNS stimulation causes decreased ___ and ___
depolorization and HR
In SA node, SNS stimulation causes increased ___ and ___
depolorization and HR
In AV node, PNS stimulation causes increased ___ and decreased ___
increased AV node delay
decreased excitability
In AV node, SNS stimulation causes increased ___ and decreased ___
