what is EDV?
|
volume of blood in ventricle before contraction
|
|
what is ESV?
|
volume of blood in ventricle after contraction.
|
|
SV=
|
EDV-ESV
|
|
what is EF?
|
it is the proportion of blood pumped out of the left ventricle each beat
|
|
EF=
|
SV/EDV
|
|
what is a good average EF?
|
50-60%
|
|
what is Q?
|
the volume of blood pumped from the LV through the systemic circuit per minute.
|
|
Q=
|
HR * SV
|
|
how does sympathetic stimulation increase Q?
|
by increasing HR and SV
|
|
normal Q at rest=
|
5 L/min
|
|
Fick equation defines the relationship among ____, ____, and the utilization of ____ in metabolically active tissue
|
VO2, Q, O2
|
|
what is the fick equation?
|
VO2=Q * (CaO2-CvO2)
|
|
what is CaO2 and CvO2?
|
atrial and venous content of O2
|
|
preload: represents the load placed on the muscle cells before _______. ______ placed on the myocardium
|
contraction
stretch |
|
what is used as a measure of preload?
|
EDV
|
|
any substance that affects contractility is called an ___________ agent
|
inotropic
|
|
Afterload--pressure in the _____ that resists the opening of the _______ valve
|
aorta
aortic |
|
afterload is represented by ______
|
DBP
|
|
Because of increased aortic pressure (afterload), the aortic valve clooses _____ and thus results in a decreased ______. The heart exerts more energy to pump less blood
|
earlier
SV |
|
An increased EDV (Pre-load) caused by an increased venous return, makes the heart work harder/less?
|
harder
|
|
EFFECTS OF EXERCISE ON CARDIAC OUTPUT
EDV _____ due to venous return. ESV _____ due to increased cardiac contractililty. The net result is that SV________. So cardiac work goes up extensively |
increases
decreases increases |
|
all vessels have a layer of _____ _______, except capillaries
|
smooth muscle
|
|
vascular smooth muscle is innervated by what?
|
the sympathetic nervous system.
|
|
single innervations allows for ______ contraction--at least some tension is maintained at all times
|
tonic
|
|
locally released substances generally _______ vasal response to neural innervation and circulating hormones.
|
override
|
|
can force of contraction of smooth muscle be graded?
|
yes
|
|
myosin filaments in Smooth muscle are _____ and ____ numerous. Entire myosin filaments are covered in myosin heads. _______ ATPse--slower rate of cross-bridging and slower time to peack tension. also ____SR
