CVD Flashcards

1
Q

Q

systole vs diastole

A

systole = contraction/ heart pumping out blood
diastole - rest/relaxation and recieving blood

Q

3 components of vascular system

A
  1. coronary (blood vessels, arteries )
  2. cerebral (15% circulation)
  3. splanchnic - liver, portal vein

Q

explain liver and portal vein importance

A

blood from GIT spleen and pancreas enter liver either via PV or hepatic artery

pv filters cleans blood

both leave via hepatic vein

Q

4 structures of blood vessels

A
  1. intima - inner layer, touch blood
  2. media - 3 layers, thickest
  3. adventitia - outer layer, strong, coats vessel
  4. vasa vasorum- small arteries within blood vessels

16
Q

artherosclerosis

A

disease of tunica intima in large mediu arteries

plaque build up with clot

17
Q

aneurysms

A

related to leaking issues
weak thin spots in vessels = burst = bleeding

18
Q

how can blood vessel leaks happens

A

anuerysms
valve malfucntion

19
Q

4 valves of the heart

A
  1. tricuspid
  2. pulmonary
  3. mitral
  4. aortic
20
Q

key areas of blockages or leakage

A
  1. coronary = myocardial infarction= heart attacl
  2. cerebral = cerbral vascular accident = stroke
  3. spanchnic arteries = liver
21
Q

major classifications of CVD problems

A
  1. coronoary artery disease
  2. rheumatic heart
  3. congestive heart failure
  4. congential heart defects
  5. cerebrovascular disease
  6. peripeheral vascular disease
22
Q

what are 3 major issues of coronary heart disease

A

MI
arrythmias
angina

chd is caused by narrow or bloackage in vessels connecyed tp heart

23
Q

explain what MI is

A

-arethercoleriss + coronoary thrombosis
= blockage of blood flow to heart
=ischemia
=heart attack

24
Q

heart block

A

atria and ventricles beating contracting on diff rhythms

25
Q

vfib, tachy, brady

A

vifib- ventriles beating too fast = blood exiting heart affected
tachy= fast hr
brady- slow hr

26
Q

CHF

A

congestive heart failure
-damage to heart or LV
=compensatory mechansism of LV hypertrpohy
=change size and shape
=contractile force and units decreased
=cant pump blood out

27
Q

what are some additional issues caused by CHF

A

increased blood pressure and volume overload

28
Q

why so much na and h2o retention in CHF

A

valvles malfunction= blood remians in heart = decreased renal perfusion = renin angiotensis system activated = na h20 retention

29
Q

right ventricular HF vs left ventricular HF

A

right HF= lower or abdominal edema
left hf = pulmonary edema

30
Q

things that can happen in cerebrovascular disease

A
  1. transient ischemic attacks
  2. ishemic strokes
  3. hemmorhagic strokes
31
Q

markers of arethrosclerosis?

A

lipoprotein a (transports lipids in blood)
fibrinogen levels
CRP (increases risk of plate formation and inflammation indicator)
