Hemodynamics

QuestionAnswer
Total amount of blood volume in the venous system is? 64%
Venous return is the amount of blood volume returning to the? Right heart.
CI is CO based on? Actual body size.
End systolic pressure is? The amount of blood in the ventricle after ejection.
End diastolic pressure is? The amount of blood in the ventricle after filling.
Indexed measurements allow the normals to be standardized therefore account for the patients different body sizes. True.
Patients who develop A-fib or 3rd degree heart block, lose their atrial kick and? CO decreases.
Cardiac Tamponade Restricts the blood entering the heart.
Fick equation CO= VO2/C(a-v)O2 x 10
Right atrium pressure. (RAP) Measured with CVP or Swans.2 to 6 torr.
Right ventricle pressure. (RVP) Measured with Swans.20 to 30/2 to 6 torr.
Pulmonary artery pressure. (PAP) Measured with Swans.20 to 30/6 to 15 torr.Waveform has diacrotic notch.
Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. (PCWP) Measured with Swans. 4 to 12 torr.
Ejection fraction. EF= SV/EDV If in the 30% range intolerance to exersise.
PAP looks at? lungs.
PCWP looks at? Left heart.
CVP looks at? Right atrial pressure or fluid levels. Norm 2-6 torr.
Systemic Artery Blood Pressure (SABP)looks at? Blood pressure thoughout the body.
Ventricular stroke work. Amount of blood ejected with each beat.
CVP norm? 2-6torr.
Cardiac Output QT norm? 4-8 L/M
Cardiac Index (CI) 2.5-4.5
Preload The stretch on the ventricle muscle fibers before contraction.
Afterload The resistance of external factors that oppose ventricular contraction.
Stroke volume is determined by? Preload, afterload, and contractility.
Preload is created by? End diastolic volume.
If there is no narrowing or dysfunction of the valve... Pressures in the atrium will be the same as in the ventricles at the end of diastole.
Atrial contraction is... 30% of cardiac output.
Afterloads two opposing factors? Tension and impedance.
Intrathoracic become more negative.(vacume effect) Increases filling and increases resistance to emptying of ventricles.
Increase in Ca causes? spastic heart.
Decrease in K+ and Na causes? Atrial fibrillation.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
