|
Ambulatory Venous Hypertension
|
|
_______ greatly effects venous flow.
|
Respiration
|
|
(Breathing In) decreases intranet-thoracic pressure but increases intranet-abdominal pressure as diaphragm descends.
|
Inspiration
|
|
What does INSPIRATION do?
|
Increased in intra-abdominal pressure reduces or stops the outflow of blood from the lower extremity.
|
|
________increases venous flow from lower extremities, while halting flow from the upper extremities.
|
Expiration
|
|
Pt performs by taking in a deep breath and then bearing down intra-thoracic and intra-abdominal pressure increase significantly and slowing down/stopping flow from lower extremity.
|
Valsalva maneuver
|
|
What determines the veins shape?
|
Transmural Pressure
|
|
_________ __________ is the difference between the pressure inside the vein (intraluminal) and the pressure outside the vein (interstitial).

Interstitial
|
|
