Question
Answer
show Arterioles  
🗑
What effect does Alpha receptor stimulation have on arterioles?   show
🗑
show False. Modified by sympathetic activity and vasoactive substances  
🗑
show Depends on the receptor. Alpha would cause vascular constriction and arterial shift. Beta-2 would dilate the veins causing venous shift.  
🗑
Pt has large amount of blood loss. What can their body (autonomic nervous system) do to compliance of the veins to ensure adequate circulating blood flow?   show
🗑
Pt has pulmonary edema resulting from CHF. How can you treat by changing venous compliance?   show
🗑
show Radius  
🗑
show Dec'd resistance and BP.  
🗑
show blood flowing over obstruction  
🗑
Pulse pressure   show
🗑
show diastolic pressure + 1/3 pulse pressure  
🗑
show volume of blood ejected from one ventricle in a single cycle.  
🗑
In what tissue of the heart are conducting cells found?   show
🗑
An increase in conduction velocity of the AV node will do what to stroke volume/ CO?   show
🗑
show It is relatively stabilized during phase 2.  
🗑
If SA node is blocked/damaged which latent pacemaker takes over and roughly what will HR be?   show
🗑
show NO PHASE 1 or 2. NO PLATEAU. UNSTABLE MEMBRANE POTENTIAL. "funny" inward Na current causes slow depolarization of phase 4 --> next AP.  
🗑
Which phase of SA node AP accounts for its automaticity?   show
🗑
Parasympatomimetic will affect what region of the heart?   show
🗑
show Dec'd contractility, parasympatomimetic.  
🗑
An increase in HR has what effect on contractility?   show
🗑
show Positive ionotropic  
🗑
show Shift to the right. Greater volume at same phases/pressure.  
🗑
Which is more costly for the heart (in terms of inc'd myocardial O2 consumption) : Pressure work (from afterload) or volume work?   show
🗑
Common pathology r/t chronic excessive workload?   show
🗑
How does ventricular hypertrophy effect CO?   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
