Blood Vessels to Small Intestine
SYMP: Alpha 1 (Nor/Epi) EPSP, vasoconstriction, reduce blood flow
PARA: NONE
Bronchioles
SYMP: Alpha 2 (Nor/Epi) IPSP, dialation of tubes, more air flow

BLOOD VESSELS
MOST: SYMP= Alpha 1, EPSP, vasoconstriction, PARA= nothing

SOME (heart, skeletal muscles): SYMP= Beta 2, vasodilation, IPSP, increase blood flow, PARA= none

In Genitals= SYMP= none, PARA= Muscarinic, ACH, IPSP, increased blood flow (erection)
Circulation jobs in lungs, Small Intestine, Kidney, Liver
Lungs: CO2 and O2 exchange

S.I. nutrient exchange

Kidney: waste removal

Liver: Everything (makes sure blood is good quality)
Major Components of the Circulatory system
Heart: pump provides force

Blood: exchange media

Tubes: arteries, capillaries, veins

Lymph: immune system center, lymph, dietary lipids
Functions of the Circulatory System
1) pH balance
2) Immune response
3) Temperature regulation
4) Transport of materials
Nodes properties of Heart
Conduct electricity
Don't contract
Non-contracting muscle cells
Functions of the Conduction Network
1) Spontaneously generates actions potentials (MYOGENIC)
2) Rapidly spreads action potentials throughout the heart
When many behave as one
Syncitium
What Ion channels polarize and depolarize the Conductile cells?
Depolarize: Slow Ca++ channels and Fast Ca++ channels
Polarize: Potassium channels

Autorhytmic 1% of cardiac muscle
GO through the pattern of stimulation for the heart
1) SA node depolarizes
2) spreads to contractile cells in both atria
3) AV node delay/ AV contract
4) Av node releases rapide signal
5) ventricles contract
What are the ion gates responsible for the contractile heart cells polarization/depolarization
Depolarization: Sodium channels

Ploarization: Potassium channels (slowed by Ca++ channels) (why cannot tetanize heart muscle)
If the pressure in the atria is greater than the pressure in the ventricles then the valve is....
OPEN
If the pressure in the atria is less than in the ventricles the valve is
CLOSED
If the pressure in the arteries is greater than the pressure in the ventricles, the valve is
CLOSED
If pressure in the arteries is less than in the ventricles than the valve is
OPEN
1 beat per
0.8 seconds
What is the timing on both the atrial and ventricle diastole and systole cycle?
Atria: systole=0.1 seconds, diastole=0.7 seconds

Ventricles: Systole= 0.3 seconds, Diastole=0.5 seconds
specify volumes of ventricle filling.
In passive relaxed atria 80%

Contracted atria 20%
This happens 3/8th of the time, when ventricular systole is occuring
Coronary circulation
What is the Frank Starling Law of the Heart?
Stroke volume will be equal to venus return

means: a stretched muscles cell contracts harder and vice versa
What is an EKG or ECG
Electrocardiogram
put electrodes on the surface of the body, detecs changes in fluid electricity in heart
Explain PQRST waves
P wave= depolarization of the atria

QRS: Ventricles depolarize

T: ventricles repolarize
What percentage of blood is in the heart, pulmonary circuit, and systemic vessels?
Heart= 7%
Pulmonary=9%
Systemic=84% (15%arteries, 5% caps, 64% veins)
Equation for TPR
Total Peripheral Resistance=
8ml/r^4

m= viscosity of the fluid being
pumped

L= vessel length (comes with rapid weight change)
What is hematocrit
It is the percentage of cells in the blood
(high hematocrit means high viscosity and vice versa)
If you increase resistance...
You increase Blood Pressure and Decrease flow
If you decrease resistance...
You decrease Resistance and decrease Blood Pressure
S/D
120/80
S-D
40 (Pulse Pressure)
Mean Arteriole Pressure
2D + S/ 3 = 93.mmHg
Blood pressure =
Cardiac Output x Stroke Volume

CO= beats/min
SV= mL/ beat
Regulation of BP
1) Autonomic NS--
SYMP: increases BP via increases in HR and SV
PARA: Decreases BP via Decrease in HR

2) Baroreceptor Reflexes:
high stretch= high BP (brain takes motor action to lower BP) (pulse frequency determine BP
What are the peripheral Chemoreceptors?
Phasic O2 detectors, only work when 02 is extremely low, about to die
What regulates BP?
1) Autonomic NS
2) Baroreceptor reflexes
3) Hormones
4) Peripheral Chemoreceptors
A pathology that makes an abnormal sound most often because a valve is not functioning.
Murmur
1) insufficiency: leaky valve that makes a noise when closed
2) stenosis: narrowed valve, noisy when opened because of turbulence
What autoimmune disease causes murmurs?
Rheumatic Fever: begins with a streptococcus infection, in process tissue damage to self (heart valves and kidney most susceptible)
thickening of arterial walls that progresses to hardening as calcium deposits form. Reduces flow of blood to the tissues.
