Give Two Formulas to Measure Flow (Q)
Q=delta P / Resistance (impt)
or, when considering Velocity
Q = V x A
-from Velocity=Q/A, where V is measured highest in great arteries/veins where cross sectional area, A, is smallest
How do you calculate Resistance
R = 8*n*L / r^4 * pi

n=viscosity, L=length, r=radius
A vessel with greater compliance has more or less elasticity?
Has Less, elasticity.
The less elastic, the more easily it is stretched
-note, Veins are more compliant than arteries, and art have thicker elastic components.
When blood is pumped into a less compliant vessel, the pressure developed is ?
The blood will be pumped through quickly or slowly?
Pressure will be High and blood is pumped through rapidly
delta Volume /
delta Press.
= what
Compliance
List a range of normal Pressure values for the following:
Aorta
Pulmonary Arteries
Aorta= 80 - 120 mmHG

Pulmonary A. = 10 - 25
List a range of normal Pressure values for the following:
Large Arteries
Capillaries
Large Arteries= 75 - 130
Capillariess= 15 - 30
How does a decrease in Arterial Compliance affect the Flow through Capillaries during Systole?
During Systole, the entire Stroke Volume must flow through the Caps b/c no stretching/reserving of blood and Potential Elastic Energy occurs.
How does a decrease in Arterial Compliance affect the Flow through Capillaries during Diastole?
Unlike normal, there will be NO continued flow through capillaries during diastole, b/c of a Lack of Stored Blood/Potential Elastic Energy to keep pushing blood through once systole stops.
What effect do non compliant vessels have on Systolic Pressure?
On Diastolic P.?
Non compliance Increases Systolic P.
-Decreases Diastolic Pressure (all flow occurred during Systolic)
What effect does non compliance have on Pulse Pressure?
Give ex of clinical condition where this may occur
It increases it, b/c Sys inc, and Diastole dec. Makes gap bigger, this gap is Pulse P.
--1. Arteriosclerosis
What is change in Systolic/Diastolic P if increase in SV?
Pulse Pressure?
Both Systolic and Diastolic P Increase in Sys/Dias AND Pulse P.

Inc SV (given CO=SVxHR) causes inc in CO, = inc. BP
What is change in Systolic/Diastolic P if increase in Resistance?
Inc R causes INcrease in both SYStolic and Diastolic Pressure, but Little Change in Pulse P.
If Systolic P is determined to have gone up from non-compliance in arteries. And, Diastolic P has ALSO increased. Is this due to the Arteriosclerosis.
NO. The Increased Diastolic P is due to increased Resistance. (arteriosclerosis/dec.compliance causes Diastolic P to DEC (there is no Pot. ElasticEngergy/Stored blood in arteries to continue coursing through after systole ends)
Diastolic Pres. in Aorta and large Arteries is about?
80 mmHG
What is BP in arterioles
66/60 mmHG
What is systolic P in capillaries (systemic)
In Pulmonary Capillaries
18
8 mmHG
What is P in Vena Cava?
Large Pulmonary A. BP?
Large Pulmonary V. P.
0-4 mmHG (filling R. Atrium
24/16
6 (when filling Left A.)
Ionotrophic Condition of the Heart and Preload both serve as functions for what?
Stroke Volume
Define and give formula for Ejection Fraction
--not ~60-70% may be normal??
= (SV)/(End Diastolic V)
ratio of blood pumped out of the ventricular chamber with each beat. Is influenced by several factors including Inotrophic Condition
Describe Vagus stimulation to the heart?
is this a + or - ____trophic effect
Vagus is Parasymp innerv on SA and AV nodes. Causes a decreased rate of depolarization during phase 4 and slows HR.
Neg. Chronotrophic Effect
Increased/Denser High P. Baroreceptor firing has what effect on Sympathetic Tone
Inc. Firing Decreases Sympathetic Tone. A resp to High BP is to dec. Sypms and Increase Para.
These are responsible for increasing HR when Cardiac Preload is Increased
Low Pressure BaroR.
When Preload Inc/ When Ventilation Inc, we want an Inc HR
As inc. amts of blood enter during diastole, the heart contracts more forcefully during systole. What is altered here? name for principle?
Contractility is altered here. It is Intrinsic Regulation, aka, Frank-Starling Law.
-Contractility due to better alignment of thick/thin filaments
What is a dilated or enlarged Ventricle
The result of chronic inc. preload recqd addition of sarcomeres in series so contractility can keep up/thick and thin fils not mis-aligned.
Sypm Stim on beta-1 receptors exhibits what type of Regulation?
What does it alter?
Extrinsic Regulation, alters Contractility with a Positive Inotrophic Effect.
--inc. intracellular Ca
