patho altrd perfusio

QuestionAnswer
perfusion definition forcing blood/other fluid to flow thru vessel and into vascular bed of tissues to provide O2 and nutrients
layers of the heart pericardium, myocardium, endocardium
pericardium fibrous covering around the heart, provides physical protection and barrier to infection includes pericardial cavity
pericardial cavity third space/layer of heart between pericardium and myocardium
myocardium muscular portion of heart forming walls of atria/ventricles where heart can have infarctions (heart attack)
endocardium thin 3 layered membrane lining heart where heart can have infections
one way valves atrioventricular (AV) and semilunar (SL) valves
fibrous skeleton provides structural support and isolating force for electrical impulses
what is the cardiac control center medulla of brain regulation of HR and force on contractility
what are intact receptors sense changes in body that provide feedback to cardiac control center help maintain HR/BP
cardiac conduction impulse that stimulates cardiac contractility, requires adequate electrical activity
coronary circulation perfusion to heart structure itself
V/Q ventilation/perfusion
major coronary vessels left and right arteries, branches off the ascending aorta
Blood pressure formula blood pressure = (cardiac output) x (systemic vascular resistance)
what factors affect systolic BP think ventricular contraction - stroke volume, heart rate and aortic resistance
what can DBP elevation indicate elevated diastolic (remaining pressure in aorta during rest phase) indicates inappropriate rest between contraction
pulse pressure difference in systolic and diastolic
what factors maintain blood pressure LV contraction peripheral vascular resistance arterial wall elasticity viscosity/volume of blood
arteries are - thick walled vessels with large amounts of elastic fibers - stretch in systole and recoil in diastole
arterioles are RESISTANCE VESSELS control valves for blood released into capillaries
what helps determines SVR/PVR arterial dilation/contraction
how does nervous system control BP/CV adaptation medulla/pons ANS BP regulation mechanisms (baroreceptors/chemoreceptor, RAAS, kidneys)
BP regulation mechanisms baroreceptors/chemoreceptors RAAS system kidneys
autonomic nervous BP control sympathetic division - increase HR/BP, cardiac contractility parasympathetic division - decrease HR
medulla/pon regulation and adaptation of cardiac/vascular function
renin enzyme produced by kidney, convert angiotensinogen to angiotensin I
ACE angiotensin converting enzyme angiotensin I to angiotensin II
angiotensin II potent vasoCONSTRICTOR stimulate adrenal cortex to secrete aldosterone
aldosterone increase Na/H2O retention by kidneys -> increase blood volume and venous return
baroreceptors pressure sensor in blood vessel/heart, activation send signal to brainstem and activate RAAS
B1 receptors receptors in the heart regulating HR/contractility, stimulated by sympathetic nervous system think beta blocker
normal cardiac output 3.5-8L per minute
normal stroke volume 70%, or about 50-100 mL
preload pressure in ventricles after diastole need adequate myocyte stretching and adequate venous return for strong contraction
afterload pressure in LEFT ventricle at end of contraction "pressure to pump against"
contractility ability of heart to increase force of contraction
excessive preload more blood into ventricle + heart is unable to overcome pressure in the ventricles
inadequate preload less blood into ventricles + decreased cardiac output/stroke volume leads to increased HR for compensation
clinical manifestations of altered perfusion cyanosis/pallor/coolness pain edema SOB/tachypnea hypotension/HTN bleeding/bruise heart murmur
V/Q mismatch inadequate perfusion with adequate ventilation (ie. pulm embolism) inadequate ventilation with adequate perfusion (ie. asthma)
impaired circulation causes hemorrhage (injury to vessels) obstructive cause
obstructive causes of circulation thrombosis/thrombocythemia embolus/thromboembolus infarct/aneurysms venous stasis bifurcation
hypercoagulation causes genetic (factor V leiden) myoproliferative dz/cancer pregnancy contraceptives
bifurcations blood vessel splits into new branches = slower blood flow
atherosclerosis abnormal thickening/hardening of artery/aorta (plaque)
cause of thickening/hardening in atherosclerosis accumulation of lipid laden macrophage in arterial wall (HLD cause)
risk factor for atherosclerosis smoking HTN FHx age (M >45, F >55) homocysteine and CRP levels
clinical manifestation of atherosclerosis possible ischemia acute vessel obstruction dt plaque thrombosis/emboli formation due to vessel endothelium damage (ulceration) aneurysm formation
major complication of atherosclerosis ischemic heart disease stroke peripheral vascular disease
thrombus blood clot attached to vessel wall such as DVT
embolus matter in blood circulation air/blood/amniotic fluid/fat
Virchow's Triad 3 major factors causing embolus endothelial damage (ie. ulceration) hypercoagulability venous stasis
aneurysm dilation/outpouching of vessel wall
true aneurysm fusiform aneurysm (widening of the blood vessel) saccular aneurysm (looks like sac on blood vessel)
false aneurysm aka pseudoaneurysm extravascular blood (vessel wall isn't damaged/slightly damaged)
dissecting aneurysm tear in all layers of blood vessel
monitoring/treatment for aneurysm under 5 cm - monitoring/medical management 5+ cm - surgical intervention d/t 6 cm or greater = high chance of rupture
aortic aneurysm/dissection acute life threatening condition
management of aortic aneurysm/dissection BP/HR control low stress
inadequate cardiac output d/t change in blood impaired ventricular pumping structural conduction defect change to SVR
HTN pathophysiology - progressive CVS dz leading to increased BP and/or organ damage -increased CO or PVR -impairment to BP regulatory mechanisms
primary vs secondary HTN primary = unknown cause secondary = manifestation of other illness (CKD, OCP, primary aldosteronism)
risk factor for HTN FHx age obesity/sedentiary DM/sodium/EtOH/smoking/nutrition black race
shock pathophysiology impaired cellular metabolism (oxygen/glucose use) cause anaerobic metabolism and lactic acid production bodily compensation - SNS + RAAS simulation -> shunt blood to heart/brain
lactate increase indicates hypoperfused tissue metabolic acidosis cause
lactate values normal under 2 severe over 4
shock manifestations (all types of shock present like this) - tachycardia/tachypnea - cyanosis/pallor, cool/clammy extremities, peripheral pulse - decreased BP (decompensation) - alter mental/restlessness/apprehension - poor urine output/dark urine
labs for chock ABG w/ lactate full labs cardiac enzymes (troponin/CRP) procalcitonin blood culture
hypovolemic shock low intravascular volume (acute loss of 15-20% blood) d/t hemorrhage, burn, dehydration/GI loss
treatment for hypovolemic shock resuscitation control underlying cause
hypovolemic shock presentation tachycardia/hypotensive cool/clammy hands + poor skin turgor dec urine output
cardiogenic shock inadequate perfusion (heart unable to pump)
causes of cardiogenic shock MI sustained arrythmias heart surgery severe heart failure
diagnosis for cardiogenic shock cardiac POCUS/TTE swan ganz catheter (tells you CO/CVP)
clinical manifestations for cardiogenic shock hypotension decreased CO cold/wet
tx for cardiogenic shock improve CO/contractility w/ inotropes reduce workload/O2 needs of myocardium regulate volume (diuretics) if due to MI tx with PCI/CABG/fibrinolytic therapy
distributive shock loss of blood vessel tone and displacement of vascular volume away from heart/central circulation
types of distributive shock neurogenic anaphylactic septic (also d/t alternate complication of prolonged and severe HTN 2/2 hemorrhage)
Neurogenic shock decreased SNS control of blood vessel tone d/t defect of vasomotor center in brain stem or sympathetic outflow to blood vessels VERY RARE SHOCK
possible causes of neurogenic shock SCI spinal anesthesia (epidural?) drug depressant action
clinical manifestations of neurogenic shock hypotension bradycardia
treatment for neurogenic shock vasopressors
anaphylactic shock IgE mediated -> excessive vasodilators (ie histamine) causing increased arteriole/venule vasodilation and increased cap permeability
clinical manifestations of anaphylactic shock bronchospasm + laryngeal edema wheezing/chest tightness dyspnea apprehension
