What is hydrostatic pressure
pressure of a liquid at rest
what is hydrodynamic pressure
pressure generated by viscosity and by a pump
How does Compliance relate to volume and pressure
C= Dv/Dp. a very compliant vessel will have very large changes in V for a given change in P
How does laplaces law relate to blood vessels
A very large Radius vessel will need much more tension to contain a given pressure than a smaller vessel. P=R/T
How does CO relate to resistance
CO=dP/R. pressure and flow are directly proportional. smaller vessels will have greater pressure and flow.
How does radius affect Flow
any change in R will affect flow proportionally to the 4th power. in comparison to L which is 1:1 inversely.
what happens to R as tubes are added in parallel
"decreases TPR, 1/R+1/R+1/R etc"
How do tubes in parallel affect conductance

what is preload
the amount in the ventricle before contracting
what is afterload
force against which the heart must pump
what is the relationship between Ca and sarcomere length
as sarcomere length increases they become more responsive to Ca. and as a result force increases
