Review of Test 3 -HEART stuff

        Help!  

Question
Answer
OVERVIEW: CIRCULATION   OVERVIEW: CIRUCLATION  
🗑
****KNOW EQUATION ON P. 201***   **PRETTY LIKELY THAT IT WILL BE ON THE TEST****  
🗑
Know how to manipulate it. Example: What would MOST influence resistance?   Radius of the tube to the fourth power  
🗑
What is directly related to resistance?   Viscosity of the fluid and the length  
🗑
What is indirectly related (and hence has the most ifnluence) on resistance/   Radius of the tube to the fourth power  
🗑
What are you suppoed to do to increase RBCs?   Live HIGH train LOW  
🗑
HEART I   HEART I  
🗑
Where does blood flow in order?   Inf and Sup Vena Cava-->Right atrium-->right ventricle-->Pulm ciculation-->Left atrium-->right atrium-->systemic ciculation (aerota)  
🗑
What is the purpose of all the valves?   prevent the backflow of blood. We don't want deoxygenated blood in an oxygenated blood section....  
🗑
What are the THREE main characteristics of cardiac muscle cells?   Straited (actin and myosin here), intercalated disks, gap junctions (conduct APs)  
🗑
What do sympathetic fibers release?   Ach  
🗑
Sympathetic fibers release?   NE and EPI  
🗑
What is the sequence of excitation starting from the PACEMAKER (SA-NODE)?   SA Node (atria)-->AV node-->bundle of his-->perkinje fibers (both ventricles)  
🗑
With an AP, the membrane permeability of what 3 elements changes?   K+, Na+, Ca+  
🗑
At rest, what is amount of sodium and calcium in cell?   Low  
🗑
What happens when the sodium allowance increases?   Depolarization  
🗑
What does this force calcium channels to do?   Open and stay open for a while (b/c of a slow permeability for calcium to enter)  
🗑
EKG   EKG  
🗑
What is the P-wave? What does it look like?   Atrial depolarization  
🗑
QRS wave:   Ventricular depolarization  
🗑
T-wave:   Ventricular repolarization  
🗑
What is needed for excitating coupling? Where is ti released form?   Ca+ released from SR  
🗑
What is the major signal for calcium releases in the SR?   The PRESENCE of Calcium  
🗑
What is this phenomena called?   Calcium induced calcium release  
🗑
Where does the calcium bind? Is all the calcium bound to troponin (do we usually have full saturation)?   Binds to troponin, which isn't fuly saturdated  
🗑
Can cardiac muscle udnergo tetnus?   Nope, not like skeletal muscles can  
🗑
Why NOT?   There's a refractory period (where you can't excite and excitable membrane)  
🗑
Systole: What contracts/relaxes?   Ventricular contraction  
🗑
Diastole: What contracts/relaxes ?   Ventricular depolarization  
🗑
Explain an isovolumetric/baloonic ventricular contraction:   When the AV valves close b/c pressure in the ventricles > atrial pressure. But, the blood doesn't MOVE out of the ventricles since there isn't enough pressure to get the pulmonary valves to open  
🗑
What is an isovolumentric ventricular relaxation?   closing of the aerotic and pulmonary valves  
🗑
Ventricular filling is in systole of diastole?   Diastole  
🗑
Ventricular ejection is in systeole of diastole?   Systole (think it contracts = ejection)  
🗑
End-diastolic volume?   Blood in ventricles before systole  
🗑
End-systole?   Volume remaining after ejection  
🗑
Stroke volume?   End Diastole - End systole (volume ejected)  
🗑
What has greater pressure, the right heart or the left heart?   LEFT heart. Just think, it has to pump blood throughout our ENTIRE system  
🗑
CO =   Heart Rate * Stroke Volume  
🗑
Increase parasymp does what to HR? INcrease symp? Increase EPI?   Parasymp = Decrease HR Symp = Increase HR. EPI: Remeber that EPI is realed from Symp, so EPI also increases HR  
🗑
What two primary things influnce stroke volume?   End diastolic volume and magnitude of SNS input to ventricles  
🗑
What does starling's law of the heart state?   Increasing end-diastolic volume will produce a greater force of contraction  
🗑
What does this result in?   Greater stroke volume  
🗑
How can increased venous return increase CO?   Distending the ventricles and icnreasing stroke volume  
🗑
An increase in afterload leads to?   Increase end systolic volume = DECREASE stroke volume  
🗑
What is pre-load?   Cardiac filling during diastole  
🗑
What impacts stroke volume???   Pre-load, afterload, and contractility (force of contraction per SNS EPI)  
🗑
VASCULAR SYSTEM   VASCULAR SYSTEM  
🗑
What are low resistance conduits for easy blood flow?   Arteries  
🗑
MAP =   DBP + 1/3 (SBP-DPB)  
🗑
What does compliance equal?   Change in volume / change in pressure (how easily can a structure be stretched)  
🗑
Which of the following is impacted by compliance? A. Pulse Pressure B. MAP C. None of the above. D. All of the above   Pulse pressure. NOT MAP!!  
🗑
Arterioles have how much ressitance? What do they determine therefore?   Lots of Ressitance; determine MAP  
🗑
Flow in an Organ is =   MAP/Resistance in an organ  
🗑
***This is key to understanding most pathophys stuff: HYPER means too little or too much? HYPO means too little or too muich?   HYPER = too MUCH. HYPO = TOO LITTLE  
🗑
Thus, hyperemia =?   TOO MUCH blood flow  
🗑
What causes vasodilation?   EDRF, NO, lots of stuff  
🗑
What 4 main things cause vasoconstriction?   NE, EPI, Angiotensin II, and vasopressin  
🗑
How fast does blood flow through capillaries?   Slowly, because remember that exchange of nutrients takes place here  
🗑
Veins have what kind of resistance? Where is the majority of your blood located most of the time?   LOW RESISTANCE; most of the blood is HERE  
🗑
REGULATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE   REGULATION OF BLOOD PRESSURE  
🗑
What is MAP = ?   Cardiac Output * TPR  
🗑
What is the function of arterial baroreceptors?   they buffer changes in arterial blood pressure  
🗑
What do cardiopulmonary baroreceptors do?   They keep the brain informed of changes in Blood pressure  
🗑
How do baroreceptors buffer the changes in BP?   They increase PS output and decrease SNS output  
🗑
So what do they decrease? (rememer the MAP equation)   Decrease CO, TPR, and MAP. REMEMBER, baroreceptors DECREASE MAP because they respond to an INCREASE in BP  
🗑
What happens if there is a DECREASE in BP?   Efferent stimulates SNS input, and inhibits PS input  
🗑
How long does regulation by baroreceptors last?   SHORT TERM  
🗑
So how do we control MAP in the lONG TERM???   VOLUME  
🗑
So, if we increase blood volume, what happens to blood pressure?   INCREASE Blood pressure (distention and all that)  
🗑
In the upright position, increased venous pressure distends the veins, causing venous pooling and increased filtration out of the capillaries. How do we deal with this?   Skeletal muscle contraction  
🗑
