Why is the PP in the MAP expression divided by 3?
|
Becuase only about 1\3 of cardiac cycle is in systole
|
|
What are the 2 expressions for MAP that we know?
|
MAP=DP+1\3PP
MAP=CO+TPR same as ∆P=QxR |
|
What are 2 major determinants for Systolic pressure and pulse pressure?
|
Compliance and Stroke volume
|
|
How does increased stroke volume change pulse pressure?
|
It increases it
|
|
WHat 2 factors affect diastolic pressure?
|
TPR and HR
|
|
How is pressure difference calculated in the pulmonary system?
|
Using the pulmonary artery systolic pressure and the LA wedge pressure
|
|
WHat 2 pressures determine the pressure gradient for venous return?
|
Peripheral venous pressure and RA pressure
|
|
How does hydrostatic pressure from standing up affect venous return? How is equilibrium re-extablished?
|
Decreases venous return transiently but neural signals increase MAP to supine levels
|
|
How does skeletal muscle affect venous return?
|
Muscle pump can enhance venous return
