Section 3: Hemodynamic Disorders Flashcards
Hemostasis
Process which causes bleeding to stop
Keeps blood in a damaged blood vessel
Increased blood volume can be due to ___ or ___
Hyperemia
Congestion
Congestion is a ___ process
Passive
Venous obstruction can lead to ___ (bluish color)
Cyanosis
Congestion can be caused by
Congestive Heart Failure
Deep Vein Thrombosis
Chronic pulmonary congestion causes fibrotic
Alveolar septa
Heart failure cells are composted of
Macrophages
Hemosiderin
Heart failure cells are found in
Chronic pulmonary congestion
In lungs after heart failure
Congestive hepatopathy can be caused by anything that obstructs
Hepatic venous drainage
Necrosis caused by congestive hepatopathy can cause
Nutmeg liver
Centrilobular necrosis
Central lobule of liver dying due to congestive hepatopathy
Edema
Abnormal accumulation of interstitial fluid
2/3 of body’s H2O is
Intracellular fluid
1/3 of body’s H2O is
Interstitial fluid
Interstitial fluid is drained by
Lymphatics
2 types of edema
- Localized (MC)
2. Generalized (rare)
Types of localized edema
- Lower extremities
- Peritoneal cavity
- Pleural cavity
Edema in peritoneal cavity can be called
Ascites
Ascites occurs due to occlusion of hepatic veins, which can occur due to
Cirrhosis
Cancer
Blood clots
Edema in pleural cavity can be called
Hydrothorax (fluid around lungs)
Generalized edema occurring in subcutaneous tissues can be called
Anasarca
Anasarca is bodywide edema due to
Low dietary protein
Edema can be caused by
- inflammation
- too much hydrostatic pressure
- too little osmotic pressure
- lymphatic obstruction
- retention of sodium or H2O
Increased hydrostatic pressure is from
Impaired venous return
