How do you treat hypertension in the elderly? Ca2+ channel Blockers
Why do the liver & kidneys have resistance of vessels in series? They detoxify blood so you want blood to move slowly. Even though the velocity of the downstream blood is increased, there is a backup of blood so blood flow decreases and blood spends more time being detoxified.
Vasodilators of the organs: Brain (Increased pCO2, decreased pO2); CV (Adenosine); Lung (Increased pO2); Muscle (Increased pCO2, decreased pH); GI (food, esp fat); Skin (Increased Temp, Increased pCO2); Renal (D2-R, PG, ANP)
What is the function of the Carotid Body? Carotid Sinus? Carotid Body is a chemoreceptor; Carotid Sinus is a baroreceptor that measure stroke volume
What is the pathway of signals from the carotid sinus? Carotid sinus measures stroke volume; Sends signal to Nucleus tractus Solitarius in the Medulla via CN IX; The Medulla then sends a signal to the heart via CN X; Medulla causes increased release of NE
How does the carotid sinus affect firing of CN IX and CN X? Cranial Nerves IX and X are always firing; Firing goes up/down along with Stroke Volume; NE goes in the opposite direction; Increased Stroke Volume causes increased firing of IX and X; decreased Stroke Volume causes decreased firing of IX and X
What effect does CN X have on the heart? CN X is inhibitory to the heart. Increased firing causes decreased Heart Rate; Decreased Firing causes Increased Heart Rate
When you stand up, how much does heart rate and blood pressure change? Heart Rate increases by 5-10bpm; Blood Pressure drops by 5-20mmHg
What is the meaning of a change less than the expected mean in HR & BP when standing up? body did not respond = Autonomic Dysfunction
What is the meaning of a change MORE than the expected mean in HR & BP when standing up? body overcompensated = Volume Depletion
Four types of Autonomic Dysfunction: Baby (Reily-Day Syndrome); Diabetics (Neuropathy); Parkinson (Shy-Drager); Elderly (Sick Sinus Syndrome)
What is the pathology of Sick Sinus Syndrome in the elderly? Carotid Sinus is so calcified that it does not respond. Sick sinus means pausing for more than one second.
What is the pathology of Reily Day Syndrome? Babies are born with no autonomic reflexes
With respect to the carotid sinus, what sequence of events takes place when you increase your fluid volume? Carotid Sinus increases firing; CN IX and X increase firing; HR decreases (Reflex Bradycardia)
Sequence of events takes place when you stand from a seated position (carotid sinus) Blood pools in legs --> Decreased venous return --> Decreased EDV --> Decreased Stroke Volume --> Decreased firing of Carotid Sinus --> Decreased firing of CN IX and X --> Increased HR Reflex Tachycardia --> Decreased BP 5-20mmHg and Increased HR 5-10bpm
Mechanism responsible for immediate regulation of BP: Carotid Reflex via Carotid Sinus
Mechanism responsible for intermediate regulation of BP: NE (alpha1 receptors then beta1 receptors)
Mechanism responsible for long term regulation of blood pressure: kidney
What is the most potent vasoconstrictor in the body? Angiotensin II
To what stimulus to JG cells in the kidney respond? And how? They respond to flow (volume) not pressure --> cause the release of Renin
What is the rationale for using a carotid massage? Massaging the carotid Sinus stimulates an increase in Stroke Volume. This causes increased firing of Carotid Sinus, Increased Firing of CN IX and X and decrease in HR
How does NE regulate blood pressure? If Carotid reflex is not enough to normalize BP, NE is released and causes vasoconstriction via Alpha1 receptors and an increase in HR via Beta1 receptors
What is the function of the carotid reflex? The carotid sinus is responsible for immediate regulation of HR via reflex Brady & Tachy cardia
What is the diagnosis for a patient presenting with increased HR and Normal BP? Hypovolemia (compensated shock)
What are the first physical signs of hypovolemia? Poor skin turgor (mottled skin), increased pulse, and decreased bowel sounds
What is lentigo reticularis? Hypoperfusion of the skin due to vasoconstriction in shock
Two most important actions of Angiotensin II: Vasoconstriction, stimulate Aldosterone release
