In the CV system, what affect occurs as a result of the Cerebral, Coronary, Renal, GI, Skeletal and Skin systems being in paralell configuration?
|
Resistance is reduced, thus you have a reduced pressure system.
|
|
The cerebral blood volume requirement is between 15-20%. why is it so large/
|
Brain has no capacity for storage of O2 or glucose, it is an obligate user.
|
|
Why does renal system need 25% vblood volume?
|
It needs a large volume ob blood/ and pressure to maintain its filter ability.
|
|
Why does skeletal need so much?
|
Fight/ or Flight
|
|
Why does coronary system only need 5%?
|
It has a large volume reserve, so it can take O2 easily.
|
|
What type of CV injury causes shearing?
|
acel/decel injury--MVC
|
|
Where does the injury most often occur?
|
Ductus Arteriosus--small ligament
|
|
What vessels in CV system have the greatest resistance/ why?
|
Arterioles, small diameter
|
|
why does right side of heart have thin walls?
|
low pressure system to lungs
7 in RA 25 in PA |
|
Why does left sideof heart have high pressures, and thicker muscle?
|
Increased work load to pump out CO against resistance to aorta- which also has a 90 degree turn to distribute blood
|
|
Where is a common area of infarct in coronay vasculature?
arythmia? |
LAD which supplies septum and Left ventircle on ant. wall
Rt bundle block |
|
A clot at the L. main coroany artery results in?
|
lethal infarct- lack of supply to entire heart and septum
R bundle block |
|
Infarct to LCX?
|
Lat wall, SA node 50%, AV 10%, left atrium
|
|
RCA?
|
Inf/post walls, SA node 50%, AV 90%, RV, R Atrium
|
|
Explain Sympathetic innervation of CV?
|
Thoracic cord to Atriai and Ventricles send message via blood stream: Norepi to beta 1 receptors: in crease contractitliy(inotropic) and rythm. Epi to Beta2 reeceptors: coronary dilation Norepi to Alpha1: coronary constriction
|
|
Explain parasympathetic innervation.
|
From medulla via Vagus to S AV nodes aliitle to SA. Chemical: ACH Function: target rate only not strength of contraction ( only few messengers to SA)- reduce pumping 50%
|
|
How much can sympathetic stimulation affect CO?
|
almost 4 times increase
|
|
What is path of electrical conduction?
|
SA node to internodal pathways,
to AV node, to Bundle of HIS to Rt & lt bundles to Purkinje fibers to intercalated discs to cell to cell |
|
What kind of communication occurrs between myocytes?
|
gap junction- very fast
|
|
Whatis another name for the electrical system of heart?
|
Excitation
|
|
What is another name for cardiac output? CO
|
Forward flow
|
|
What is required to get fwd flow?
|
A chang e in pressure for rt side to left side
|
|
whatis the greatest determinant of fwd flow/
|
radius of vessel to the 4th degree
|
|
What is one way heart can compensate to change flow?
|
It can vasodilate and change pressure and thus change flow
|
|
Flow is directly proportional to ...?
|
pressure and radius
|
|
Flow is indirectly proportional to...?
|
Length and viscosity
|
|
Give 4 examples:
|
1. increase pressure = increase flow unless tapped out
2. Vasoconstriction = decrease radius = decrease flow unless heart works harderor radius increase = increasB/P 3. Longer length of vessel = increase resistance = decrease flow 4. increase viscosity= increase resistance= decrese flow unless heart works harder to maintain flow |
|
Formula for flow
|
chg pressure X pie radius to 4th over 8n X length X viscosity
|
|
Why are alveolar/capillaries a low pressure system?
|
In parallet configuration and very thin walls - multiple channels for run off- have decresed resistance
|
|
What occurrs when Volume is decreased?
|
Vasoconstriction, decrease flow to gut and skin shunt to vitals
|
|
What occurrs when B/P decreased?
|
vasoconstrict= increase flow( increased velocity)= increase pressure
|
|
Whatis laminar flow?
|
A parabolic flow itis smooth and straight the edges of the vessels have some resistance and shearing the center most RBC slip by the easiest. Pattern occurrs in a normal vessels
|
|
What kind of blood flow occuurs with decreased b/p?
|
Laminar flow, will slow flow, requires less energy
|
|
What function does endolthelium provide?
|
It produces heparin which prevenst sticking of those slow moving RBC in laminar flow; considered an organ. result no clotting
|
|
What are the characteristics of turbulent flow?
|
requires more energy. ther ismore resistance and takes increased pressure to get flow. result of damage in vessel, no shear force disorganized flow.
|
|
Why can yuo feel a bruit?
|
Itis turbulent flow. Dialysis pts with AV shunt have.
|
|
Name 4 determinants to forward flow/ CO?
|
HR, Afterload, Preload and contractility
CO=HR X SV if any go bad Co affected |
|
Relationships to decreased SV?
|
Increase HR, but less filling time so SV decreases
|
|
What is an inotropic affect?
|
something that increase the strength or squeeze of contraction
|
|
What endogenous biological chemical affects CNs and CV?
|
catecholamine
|
|
At what point does increased HR not produce increased CO?
|
100 bpm
|
|
Explain mechanism of increased HR d/t fever?
|
Increase HR, increased metabolism d/t acidotic state, increase energy= increased heat
|
|
How do ions affect HR?
|
Excess K+ can block conduction = decreased HR
|
|
How does over distended heart affect HR?
|
Suppress vagus= HR decrease called Bainbridge affect
