Q

explain the RAAS system

A

when BP falls renin comes from the kidneys and angiotensinogen is released from the liver and then they react together to form angiotensin 1 and then ACE is released from the lungs and acts on angiotensin 1 to form angiotensin 2 which then stimulates vascontriction of the blood vessels and also acts on adrenal glad to stimulate release of aldosterone to act on the kidneys to stimulate reabsoprtion of water and salt

Q

what causes a pathological decreases in cardiac output

A

congestive heart failure

96
Q

CHF is a __ ventricular failure leading to ____ congestion

A

left
pulmonary

97
Q

For example, left-sided HF is frequently the result of left ventricular insult (e.g., myocardial infarction, hypertension, aortic valve disease), which causes fluid to accumulate behind the left ventricle ([LV], left atrium, pulmonary veins, pulmonary capillaries, lungs). If the left-sided failure is severe, there is progressive accumulation beyond the lungs, leading to pulmonary hypertension (PH) and subsequently as right-sided failure. 7 Thus right-sided HF may occur because of left-sided HF or because of right ventricular failure (e.g., secondary to PH, pulmonary embolus, right ventricular infarction). In either case, fluid backs up behind the right ventricle and produces the accumulation of fluid in the liver, abdomen, and bilateral ankles and hands.
