What is formula for Pressure?
for Flow? |
P= Flow x Resistance
Flow= P/R |
|
What is formula for Blood Pressure?
|
BP = Cardiac Output x Resistance
|
|
Highest PULMonary Pressures are found where?
Right Ventricle High P =? Right Ventricle Low P =? |
--P Highest in Right V. and Pulmonary A.
High = 24mmHG Low= 0-4 mmHG |
|
Pulmonary Artery maximum and minimum pressures are?
|
High = 24
Low = 10-16 mmHG (avg is 20) |
|
Capillary Wedge Pressure is what value
|
7 mmHG
This is the Pressure in/on way to capillaries. |
|
Pressure in Pulmonary V. to left atrium is what value?
|
1-6 mmHG
|
|
Zone 1 refers to pulmonary capillaries that BLANK during a cardiac cycle due to gravity
|
remain collapsed.
Zone 2 will be open during part of the cycle due to greater intravasc. P than in Zone 1. Zone 3 are always open |
|
What is effect of Pulmonary BP if there is an increase in Flow causing a vasc. radius to inc.?
|
Pulm. BP will have little increase as BP = CO(inc.) x R(dec.) as long as vasc is compliant.
Note: Resistance dec when r inc. |
|
What are consequences if Pulmonary BP is NOT maintained low
|
Edema and others
|
|
If the Starling Pressure is Positive, in which direction will water move?
|
net fluid movement will be into the interstition
Normal is a net positive |
|
Note on Pulmonary to Systemic Pressure Gradients
|
Wedge P (pulm. cap.) is > Pulm. V. P. > Left Atrial P.
Systemic Pressure is much greater than all |
|
Positive Oncotic Pressure draws water which way?
ex. Interstitial Oncotic of 21 moves fluid into or out of Capillary? |
Towards itself.
Toward itself, so OUT of the capillary. |
|
Edema in Pulmonary interstitium, and/or, into Alveolus indicates CHF in what side of heart--assume lymphatics are okay
|
Indicates CHF in Left Heart.
--Left V. doesn't pump all the the Blood the Right V. sent into pulmonary, so that is where it backs up. |
|
Capillary P of 20mmHG can cause what?
Likely Cause |
causes Pulmonary congestion and fluid into Alveolus if lymphatics overwhelmed.
|
|
What are other causes of Pulmonary Edema, 3?
|
Capillary Wall Inflammation
Pulmonary Hypertension Alveolar Hypoxia |
|
Elevated Jugular Venous P. (JVP) is indicative of what?
|
Right Ventricular Heart Failure.
-with, Edema in limbs, or in abdomen (ascites)---ex. of systemic edema |
|
What is the water vapor P at body temp?
What is resultant Inspired Air pressure in mmHG |
47mmHG added by nasal passages brings pressure down to 713mmHG (use .21 O2 and .79 N)
|
|
What are the considerations for Alveolar air given 760mmHg, dry, sea level. (3)
|
-47mmHg saturated w/ nasal H20
-dec. 40mmHg O2 taken up -inc. 40mmHg CO2 exchange --since equal exchange, no net d on N2 |
|
What are the considerations for Expired air given 760mmHg, dry, sea level.
Total Pressure =? Change in O2 relative to alveolus? Change in CO2 relative to alveolus? |
Total Pressure still 760, with 47mmHg displaced by water. )2 higher than Alveolar from Dead Air Space. CO2 is lower (40-27
|
|
With dry, Sea level air, what are O2, CO2 values for:
Inspired? Alveolar? Expired? |
Inspired: 149 O2, O CO2
Alveolar: 104 O2, 40 CO2 Expired: 120 O2, 27 CO2 |
