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
Whatis conatropic?
?
