Chapter 14 Cardiac Output, Blood Flow, and Blood Pressure Flashcards
activity of the heard
cardiac output
equation for CO
CO= HR x SV
cells of the heart
myocardiocytes
cells that determine the HR
autorythmic cells
Mean arterial pressure (MAP)
average pressure by which blood is transported through the body
what system dynamically adjusts CO and MAP
autonomic system
cardiac output
volume of blood that each ventricle pumps out in a certain time (L/min)
average HR
70 beats/min
SV volume average
70-80mL per beat
pacemaker potential at which SA node is excited
100 beats/min
which nervous system conrols the resting state
parasympathetic nervous system
how controls the parasympathetic nervous system the lower HR
with ACh
decrease of HR due to permeability to K+ -> slower rate of depolarization
which nervous system is responsible for an increasing HR
sympathetic nervous system
how does the sympathetic nervous system control the HR
with E and NE
increased permeability of HCN channels -> faster depolarization rate
effects that the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system have on the SA node
sympathetic: increased rate of diastolic depolarization - increased HR
parasym. : decreased rate of diastolic depolarization - decreased HR
effects that the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system have on the AV node
symp. : increased conduction rate
parasym: decreased conduction rate
effects that the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system have on the atrial muscle
symp. : increased strength of contraction
parasym: No effect
effects that the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous system have on the ventricular muscle
symp. : increased strength of contraction
parasym: No effect
regulations of the SV
end diastolic volume
total peripheral resistance
contractility
greater End-diastolic volume
greater SV because of stretch
greater total peripheral resistance
greater pressure in arterial system -> lower SV
more blood remains in ventricle -> increased EDV -> increased stretch of heart muscle
greater arterial pressure
increased afterload, hard must work harder to eject blood
what happenes when E and NE increase the ventricular contractility
SV increases
what is the Frank Starling Law of the Heart related to
the increase of SV as end-diastolic volume increases
