Question
Answer
the adrenal medulla releases ___ and ___, which...   epinephrine & noepinephrine - increases CO by vasoconstriction  
🗑
angiotensin II is generated by ___   renin released from kidnets  
🗑
what does angiontensin II do?   vasoconstriction - stimulates release of aldosterone & ADH  
🗑
angiontensin II ___ pressure and resistance   increases  
🗑
atrial natriuretic peptide causes....   vasodilation  
🗑
what does atrial natriuretic do?   antagonizes aldostoreone - increases excretion of sodium & water  
🗑
antidiuretic hormone known as ADH can also be called ___   vasopressin  
🗑
ADH stimulates ___   conservation of water by kidneys  
🗑
direct renal mechanisms...   alters how much fluid comes out blood through kidneys  
🗑
what is hypertension?   increase in systolic pressure (higher than 140) & diastolic (over 90)  
🗑
pre-hypertensive means ___   pressure valves between 120-140 and 80-90  
🗑
pre-hypertensive strains the ___ over years   cardiovascular system  
🗑
pre-hypertensive causes the heart to ____ causing ___ which.....   push against greater resistance - hypertrophy - eventually weakens  
🗑
pre-hypertensive accelelrates ___   atherosclerosis  
🗑
primary hypertension is caused by ___   unknown causes - drugs, lifestyle changes  
🗑
what causes secondary hypertension?   a known medical condition such as kidney disease, endocrine disorders, etc  
🗑
circulatory shock is any condition where ___   blood vessels are inadequately filled (blood doesn't circulate normally)  
🗑
this type of shock is caused by pump failure.   cardiogenic shock  
🗑
___ shock is due to blood or fluid loss   hypovolemic  
🗑
in hypovolemic shock...what happens?   heart rate increases to raise BP - intense vasoconstriction  
🗑
what is vascular shock?   extreme vasodilation  
🗑
vascular shock can be caused by...   allergic reaction, septic shock or ANS failure  
🗑
the kidneys and abdomen ____ blood flow during exercise   decrease  
🗑
the heart, skeletal muscles and skin ___ blood flow during exercise   increase  
🗑
what happens to the brain blood flow during exercise?   it stays constant  
🗑
in active hyperemia, what happens to blood flow?   it increases in response to greater metabolic activity  
🗑
cerebral vessels __ when mean arterial pressure declines   dilate  
🗑
as mean arterial pressure rises, cerebral vessels ___   constrict  
🗑
the brain is vulnerable to sudden extreme changes in pressure. fainting occurs when____   mean arterial pressure falls below 60 mmHg  
🗑
increased capillary permeability is caused by...   pressure goes over 160mmHg  
🗑
hysrostatic pressure is the ___ ___   pushing pressure - pushes fluid across membrane  
🗑
the "pulling pressure" is known as __   osmotic pressure  
🗑
in osmotic pressure, what happens?   water is drawn from tissue into capillary bed  
🗑
extrinsic controls ___ during exercise   decrease  
🗑
what happens to mean arterial pressure and cardiac output during exercise?   it increases - while resistance decreases  
🗑
