What effects BP
|
Stress
Age Positive Pressure Vent Disease Lead Pipe Syn (max dilation or constriction) |
|
Flow =
|
Pressue/Resistance
|
|
R=
(R= Perph Resistance |
P/Q
(P= Mean Art Press) (Q= Cardiac Output) |
|
P=
P = MAP |
R x Q
= Perph Resist x C.O. |
|
If pressure is high, if resist is also high then flow is
|
diminished
|
|
BP is an indicator of
|
organ perfusion not a measure of it.
|
|
Pulse Pressure =
|
Systolic - Diastolic
|
|
Narrow Pulse Pressure
Increased diastolic bp = |
decreased compliance of vessels
|
|
Korotkoff Phases
1 = |
Sharp, clear sound 120-110
|
|
Korotkoff Phases
2= |
Blowing/swishing 109-100
|
|
Korotkoff Phases
3= |
Sharp but softer than 1
99/88 |
|
Korotkoff Phases
4= |
Muffled/Fading
82/87 |
|
Korotkoff Phases
5= |
No Sound <81
|
|
Korotkoff Phases
Systole is between what phases |
1-4
|
|
Korotkoff Phases
distole is between what phases |
Starts between 4-5
|
|
Properly fitting BP cuff is
|
+20% of arm
|
|
BP cuff that is too smaller will
|
Make BP artifically high
|
|
BP cuff that is too big will
|
Make BP artifically low
|
|
What is a Bare Block
|
Inflating BP and using lidocaine and performing surg on the arm.
|
|
Automated BP techniques
Advantages |
hand free to do other tasks
observer error avoided alarms available Intermit readings |
|
Automated BP techniques
Disadvantages |
Time dependent
<50 will recycle Mechanical/arm position |
|
BP readings: What is more important Absolute or trends of readings
|
Trends point in the direction that you are headed
|
|
How does auto BP cuff hear
|
Hear Oscillations, picks up highest amplitude= MAP. Alogirthim in the machine figures Sys/Diatolic based on MAP
|
|
BP cuff will automactically inflate to what pressure on the first attempted reading
|
160mmHg
after it will inflate 20mmHg higher than last Sys. |
|
Indications for Invasive BP monitoring
Absolute= always Relative = judgement |
Major cardiac surg- requires bypass
Major vasc surg (poss hemo instability, large bld loss) Surg procedures needing strict monitoring (CAD, Neurosurg, deliberate hypotension) Multi ABG or bld draws (>3) |
|
Type of catheter for A-line
|
non tapered teflon (less thrombogenic)
|
|
Process of Placing A-line
|
1) Assess Pulses
2) Hyperflex wrist 3) Lidocaine 4) Insert cath 45 deg 5) Flash -> flatten 30 deg 6) Advance cath, 7) apply press, connect tubing |
|
Pressure Bag is inflated to what pressure
|
250-300mmHg
|
|
How much saline flows through
|
2-3ml/hr
|
|
What is a transducer
|
Transducer is a straingauge
displaces diaphram, changes mechanical into electrical energy |
|
Wheatstone Bridge
|
Electronic based upon strain gauge, balanced electronic device
|
|
What is the diacrotic notch
|
closing of the aortic valve
|
|
A wide waveform
|
Root of the aorta
|
|
A narrow waveform
|
perph art (inc ht of wave)
very narrow in dorsalic pedis |
|
Resonace Frequency
|
40Hz movement of the system without being hooked up
|
|
Inadequate Resonance
|
overshoot caused from the tubing
|
|
Calibration of the A line
|
Transducer to midaxillary = ht of R atria, 0 to air
|
|
Return to flow technique
|
Checking after a line is placed with return flow to determine if there is a difference
|
|
Advantanges of direct technique
|
Accuracy
shock induced hypotension Continous record Shape of wave No observer bias Intermittent sampline Determine if ectopic beats are perfusing |
|
DisAdvantanges of direct technique
|
Risk of art damage
technical expertise required cost infection thrombosis (distal to aline = cold= clot/ischemia |
|
MAP=
|
Diastolic Pressure + 1/3 (sys-dias press)
SBP + 2(DBP)/3 |
|
Autoregulation of Brain and kidneys like what pressure
|
50mmHg
|
|
Increase CO2 affects the brain by
|
inc CO2 = inc cerebral perfusion
|
|
MAP 60-100
Out of range <60 |
Becomes pressure dependent
|
|
>160
|
Brain sees the pressure
|
|
Causes of Inc ICP
|
CSF, Blood, hydrocephalus,tumor, trauma
|
|
Cushings Traid
|
Inc BP, brady, inc ICP (herniation)
|
|
Cushings Traid TX
|
Hyperventilation, mannitol draw off CSF (done in phase of 1& 2 not 3&4 d/t hernia
|
|
MAP = what % of Pt's range of pressures where BP's are normally
|
20%
|
|
Chronic HTN affects compliance curve
|
shifts curve to the right
|

|
measure CPP at the level of the head
|
